How Do You Press A Pie Crust?
To press a pie crust, first roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is slightly larger than your pie dish. Then, fold the dough in half and transfer it to the pie dish, unfolding it and pressing it gently into the bottom and sides of the dish. Use a fork to prick holes in the bottom of the crust to prevent it from puffing up during baking. Finally, use a sharp knife to trim the excess dough from the edges of the dish and crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork.
