  • 1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp. salt

  2. Line pastry with aluminum foil, and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
  3. Bake at 425 degrees F for 4-5 minutes. Remove weights and foil; bake 2 minutes more or until golden. Cool.
  4. Stir together sugar and next 7 ingredients until blended. Add eggs, stirring well. Pour into pie crust.
