[email protected]This pie was a disaster! The crust was burnt and the filling was undercooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.
bri Murphy
[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The crust was too tough and the filling was too runny.
Amanda White
[email protected]The crust was a little soggy, but the filling was delicious. I think I'll try blind-baking the crust next time.
