How To Make tar heel pie
-
1Heat oven to 350F. On a lightly floured surface, roll a disk of dough into a 12-in circle. Fit it into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-in pie plate. Trim the dough so that the overhang is even all the way around (about 1/2-in from the edge of the pie plate). Fold the overhang under itself to create a thicker rim of dough and crimp as desired, Refrigerate until ready to fill.
