  • Use a deep-dish pie plate: This will help to prevent the pie from bubbling over in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature: This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will help the pie to set and the flavors to meld.
