Got the frozen pie crusts and can of apply pie filling. Pie needs a top crust. How do I use the other frozen crust to make a top crust? Esthetics is not a concern.
I tried popping the crust out of the aluminum container by bouncing it off the counter. I put if in the microwave on high to try and defrost a bit. Aluminum pie plate does not work in microwave too good. Lot of sparks and a little bit of smoke. It did get the crust defrosted but still stuck to the pie plate. I finally scraped the crust out in strips and got the top of the apples covered. Doesn't look good but ought to work.
I don't have to impress anyone with my cooking but myself. Don't care what it looks like long as the crust is flaky but not burnt and I can taste all the cinnamon/sugar I topped the apples with.
