Question

The top of my pecan pie crusts always get too brown, what can I do to stop it from doing this?

Answer 1

Cover it loosely with tinfoil until the last 12-15 minutes

Answer 2

Hello,

You can cover the entire pie with tin foil for the last 10 minutes of baking. If it is just the crusts which are darkening you can make a foil ring to place(cover) on the edges of your pie crust.

There are also pre-made (pie shield) tin rings that sit on the outside edges of your crust that prevent them from getting to dark or burning.

You can pruchase them through Lillian Vernon for $5.98 USD their item # is 003743 808(link below) or call 1-800-545-5426

Good Luck! I hope this helps you out!
