When should you add pie filling mix to a crust?

You should add the pie filling mix to the crust after the crust has been baked.

Here's why:

* Prevents Soggy Crust: Adding the filling to a raw crust would result in a soggy crust as the filling releases moisture during baking.

* Ensures Proper Baking: The crust needs to be baked separately to achieve a crisp and golden-brown texture.

* Allows for Filling to Set: Baking the filling on top of a pre-baked crust allows the filling to set properly and prevents it from becoming runny.

Steps:

1. Bake the pie crust: Follow your chosen recipe instructions for baking the crust.

2. Let it cool: Allow the crust to cool completely before adding the filling.

3. Add the filling: Pour or spoon the pie filling mixture into the cooled crust.

4. Bake again: Bake the pie according to the filling's instructions.

Enjoy your delicious pie! 🥧
