2) Use a long serrated knife to score the crust. Place the knife across the pie and press gently to cut through the edges of the crust. Don’t saw, just press.

4) Now use a paring knife to cut into the pie along the score lines. Start in the center of the pie and draw the knife out. Cut through the top and bottom crusts. Wipe the knife after each cut.
