For the second mold cut the pie
edges from the side and reposition
in the center (see Figure 3a and
3b). The Reversible Pastry Cutter
creates slits in the dough for the
bottoms that allow you to overlap
the dough for a better fit (see
Figure 4).
Unless the recipe states otherwise
2
we recommend using puff pastry
dough for the tops and standard
pie crust dough for the bottom
(pie tarts do not have tops,
when finished filling the bottom
mold close the cover and start
the cooking process). If using
store-bought dough you can find
puff pastry dough in the freezer
section of most supermarkets.
Pie crust dough is usually found
in the refrigerated section near
the cookie dough, biscuits, and
cinnamon roll dough.
Open the Pie & Pastry Baker and
3
place the large bottom dough
over the Pie Mold (see Figure 5).

Add about 3/4 cup of your fillings
(unless recipe states otherwise) to
the prepared bottom dough (see
Figure 6). The weight of the fillings
will cause the dough to drop down
into the Pie Mold. You can also use
the bottom of a ladle or rounded
spoon to gently press the dough
into the Pie Mold, being careful not
to tear the dough. Press the dough
down gently over the edges.
WARNING:
Surfaces are hot. Never touch the
cooking surface directly with your
fingers.
If your recipe calls for a top, place
the molded dough top over the
filled Pie Mold and close the Lid (see
Figure 7). Press the Locking Latch in
until you hear a click indicating that
it is locked.
Set a timer for the specified time
as indicated in your recipe. You will
notice that the green Ready Light
cycles on and off during the cooking
process indicating that the correct
temperature is being maintained.
When the cooking time is complete
unplug the Pie & Pastry Baker from
the wall outlet. Pull the Locking Latch
up from the bottom and carefully
lift the Lid. If you need additional
browning, simply close the Lid and
set a timer to the desired time.
Carefully remove the pie from the
Pie Mold by using a thin nylon or
wooden spatula. You can also use
a bamboo skewer to slide down
the side of the pie. Lift one end of
the pie up and slide the spatula
underneath to remove the pie from
the Pie Mold. Be careful as the pie,
contents, and appliance are hot.
Do not use metal utensils to avoid
damaging the nonstick surface.
