Classic Pie Shell

Description: Impress your guests with an incredible homemade pie! Add your pie filling of choice, pop it in the oven and let your home fill with the intoxicating smell of freshly baked pie.


About Our Classic Pie Shells
For our Classic Pie Shells we chose our freshly milled organic Soft White flour for its buttery flavour. We mill the flour right before we use it and leave it unsifted, making it 100% whole wheat. This ensures maximum flavour and freshness. We then incorporated butter and sugar and rolled it out into a beautiful pie shell. It has a buttery and slightly nutty flavour with a light and flakey texture.

Details

Each pie shell is 9 inches and comes frozen. Follow this link for baking instructions or scroll to the bottom of this page.

Ingredients: Freshly milled organic Soft White flour (grown by Fieldstone Organics, Armstrong, milled by Confluence Farms), butter, sugar, pink Himalayan salt.


Baking Instructions

If your recipe doesn't ask you to blind-bake (pre-bake) your crust:

Remove your pie shell from the freezer about 30 minutes before using. The pie shell should go into the oven chilled but not frozen.

Pre-heat the oven to the temperature in your recipe. Place a thick-bottomed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven to preheat as well. This will help to evenly distribute the heat from the oven to the aluminum pie tin.

Once thoroughly preheated, add your filling to the pie shell and place the pie on the hot pan in the oven.

When your pie is done, carefully remove it from the baking sheet and place it on a cooling rack to cool.

If your recipe asks you to blind-bake the pie shell before adding the filling:

Remove your pie shell from the freezer about 30 minutes before using. The pie shell should go into the oven chilled but not frozen.

Preheat the oven to 350 f. Place a thick-bottomed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven to preheat as well. This will help to evenly distribute the heat from the oven to the aluminum pie tin.

Once the oven is thoroughly preheated, place the pie shell on the hot baking sheet and bake for about 25 min.

When your pie shell is done, carefully remove it from the baking sheet and place it on a cooling rack to cool.

Happy baking!
