Tips

Use a deep dish pie plate. You can double this recipe for a deep, deep dish pie.

You can double the crust if you like a thinker crust

The pie can be made up to 1 day in advance. I store it covered with foil (not plastic wrap) in the fridge. You can also freeze this pie if your pie plate is freezer safe.
