  3. Seal the Edges: Crimp the edges of your pie crust to prevent the filling from leaking and to ensure a beautiful presentation.
  4. Vent the Top: Cut small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape, which helps to keep the crust crisp.
  5. Let It Rest: Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes after baking. This step helps the filling set and makes serving easier.
