The Pyrex pie plate is a branded version of a glass pie plate that is made of a special soda lime glass composite. Pyrex pie plates heat evenly, are dishwasher, oven and microwave safe and offer the cook the ability to see how well the crust is browning as the pie cooks in the oven. With the proper care, a Pyrex pie plate will last for years.
Instructions
1. Ensure that the pie plate is thoroughly dry before using. Preheat your oven to the desired temperature.
2. Grease the inside of the pie plate generously, using nonstick spray, butter, shortening or lard.
3. Place your prepared pie crust in the plate and press to form it to the pie plate design.
4. Tear or trim off excess crust. Crimp the edges of the crust if your pie recipe is a single crust pie.
5. Bake your pie according to the recipe.
6. Wash the pie plate using soap and water. If scrubbing is necessary, use a plastic scrubby. Steel wool or metal scrubbers can easily scratch the plate.
