Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh sauerkraut, dark chocolate, and butter are essential for a delicious pie. Look for organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Make sure the sauerkraut is well-drained: Excess moisture will make the pie soggy. Squeeze the sauerkraut well before using it.
  • Don't over-mix the batter: Over-mixing will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 45 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
