Maple Hazelnut Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare pie shell:

Fit into a 9-inch pie plate and trim excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang under (to reinforce edge) and press against rim of pie plate. Decoratively crimp edge and chill shell until firm, about 30 minutes.

Cool completely in pie plate on a rack, about 20 minutes.
