Mrs. Anderson’s ceramic pie weights are essential tools for blind baking pie crusts. When baking empty pie shells, pie weights hold down the dough to prevent it from shrinking, bubbling, and buckling during the baking process. Whether you’re using a frozen pie crust or perfecting your own homemade recipe, these individual ceramic beads let you achieve a perfectly golden-brown crust every time.
Blind baking couldn’t be easier with these weights. The individual beads are easy to place and arrange to fit any pie size, and heat transfers evenly across the crust for consistent results. These ceramic pie weights work for any recipe that calls for a pre-baked shell.
