- Cover pie with a loose foil tent so that the crust and top don't brown too much. Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, turn the oven down to 300 degrees, remove foil tent, and bake for another 20 minutes. Pie will still be a little jiggly but if it's too jiggly, bake an additional 10 minutes. Make sure pie does not brown too much. If it is getting too brown place the foil tent back on.
