Had some veggies and some mozzarella to use up. So I thought I'd make a pie. Went down really well. Add courgette or any other veg you fancy #eattherainbow #leftovers #vegetarian

Tips

How to avoid a soggy pie bottom if you don't have baking beans

I'll be honest, I never use baking beans. Sometimes I blind bake my pies first sometimes I don't, depends on my mood! However this works well to avoid that soggy bottom. Simply glaze the pie before adding the filling with a beaten egg and prick with a fork. Then continue as normal 😁
