It adds sparkle and crunch to the baked pie.
How Do You Keep Your Lattice Pie Crust from Burning?
Sally Vargas
Cut off a piece large enough to cover your whole pie.
Fold and cut out a piece to cover the edges.
An easy step-by-step tutorial is availablehere.
You want your pie crust to still be nice and flaky, not steamed!
But in general, almost any pie crust recipe will do.
If you don’t have a food processor, try ourhandmade pie crustrecipe (no special equipment needed).
The dough should extend beyond the rim of the pie dish by about 1/2 inch.
Put it in the refrigerator to chill while you work on the lattice.
Fill your pie shell with the pie filling.
Fold back every other strip.
Place one long strip of dough perpendicular to the parallel strips as shown.
Unfold the folded strips over the perpendicular strip.
Sally Vargas
Unfold the folded parallel strips over the second strip.
Continue this process until the weave is complete over the top of the pie.
Fold back the rim of the shell over the edge of the lattice strips, and crimp to secure.

Bake pie as directed in your recipe.
Let cook for at least an hour before serving.
