Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. You don’t want to put your pie into a cold oven. If you use my homemade pie crust recipe, you do not need to bake the pie crust beforehand. (Purchase an inexpensive oven thermometer to know if your over runs hot or is not calibrated properly.)
If you find the crust is browning too quickly, you can create a shield out of foil. Cut a whole in the center and only loosely cover the crust.
Do not take the pie out too soon. You want the filling to get gorgeously brown and caramelized. If you under-bake, the color will remain pale and the flavors will not fully develop. At 40 minutes remaining the pie will look eggy. At 30 minutes remaining it will be starting to brown and thicken. At 20 minutes remaining it will look like hot caramel. And with only 5-10 minutes left it may even look like burnt caramel.
