If your dough has been chilled overnight, it will need to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before rolling. Lightly flour your work surface and roll the pie dough out to a 13-inch round that is ⅛ inch thick. Transfer to a 9½-inch pie dish and use your fingertips to relax the dough into the shape of the pie dish, leaving a 2-inch overhang around the edge of the dish. Fold the extra dough under itself. Crimp the edge of the dough with your fingers, pressing the dough into the pie dish and making sure it extends to the outer edge of the dish. Freeze the crimped crust for about 20 minutes, until the dough is very cold. |
