After filling the pie crust does the pie need to be baked or is it ready to eat?

This product is ready to eat. If you have any left over, put it in the refrigerator. I agree with the 2 previous answers submitted.

Is it a cake or a pie? I don't understand. The filling shown is already cooked

I only used it as a filling between layers on a cake and when you do that, you do not cook it. I probably wouldn't use it to make a pie, but instead would use Comstock pie filling or any other specifically named "pie filling" that typically comes in a can at your local grocery store. Most pies made with pie filling need to be baked, unless it is a cream pie, i.e: chocolate cream, lemon

Just fill and bake no top pan necessary. The donuts come out mostly rounded on top, if the pan is overfilled the donuts turn out somewhat flat on top.

Yes absolutely, you can also bake a pie from frozen state in about 30 min. You will probably have to play with time and temp but it gets easier every time you use it. I love it, so handy.

The recommendation is to preheat with the oven and then place the pizza on it. I find that most frozen pizza's cook better without the stone, just place on center rack.

Yes, remone the metal rack before microwaving or you run the risk of causing arcing which can burn out your oven. Whether to use the rack while convecting is a judgement call. By placing a pie on the rack to bake, you will never have a soggy bottom crust again. But over baking the bottom of other desserts may not be desirable. This is the best microwave-convection oven I've ever used, but you do need to spend some time working out how to get the best results out of it. Have fun.

An easy 10 inch pie and it will take extra filling will need to make crust bigger than 10inch to have a great formed crust to fit neatly always will need extra filling and crust to allow for shrinkage for both I hope this answers the question and is helpful!

As long as the oven takes to preheat. You keep the stone in the oven and when your ready to use it you already have it in the oven when you go to preheat the oven. Hope that helps.

no crust.. after cooking you have to put on the grill or oven for this to occur

I would preheat the stones and assemble on parchment paper. Once the stone is to the desired temp you can slide the pie onto the stone.

Until your pie cools completely . If you put in Luke warm it fogs up the carrier inside and makes a soggy pie.

I let the stone heat up in the oven and slide the pizza, calzone or whatever onto it. The quality and tastiness of almost any kind of dough or pastry/filo crust is greatly improved when baked on this hot stone. This is the same technique you can see at many restaurants that have stone ovens for baking pizza etc. The stone surface is always heated first before adding the food.

I tend to agree with G. Murray about placing a small piece of plastic wrap between the pie and pan, just make sure you remove the plastic from the pie before baking. Sorry I have not used this pan in my freezer either like G. Broughton stated.

Yes you can. I googled a recipe for the pie crust and located one. It was actually pretty good.

For best results using the BPI640XL Personal Pie™ fillings should be cooked and cooled before adding to the pastry base. The cooking time for the pies is not sufficient to cook raw meat fillings or soften fresh fruit or vegetable fillings. Spoon cooled, pre-cooked filling into the pastry base. As a general rule, use ½ cup of filling per pie. Do not overfill your pies.

The idea is to use the stone as your pan. Put a piece of parchment paper on top with your pizza on it and off you go. Makes the best crust.

I line the pan with parchment paper and when it is time to bake the pizza I slide the whole thing off onto a pizza stone and bake it. When it's bubbling I slide it back onto the pan and then off again to slice with a pizza cutter. (that way I don't mess up the pan and get a great pizza shape and browned crust)

No, it's for pies that use an upper & lower crust. Fruit or savory type pies. You close the lid for cooking so it would make a mess and probably not cook properly at all without an upper crust.
