William Bounds Sili Pie Crust Protector, Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before I bought this pie crust protector, I made my own protector from thin strips of aluminum foil, pieced together and perched precariously around the edges of the pie. They tended to slip off when I moved the pie into the oven and were not that great.
I bought this and have used it on a 9" pie plate. I left it on the whole time I was cooking the pie (65 minutes) and the crust came out perfectly browned, not burnt.
The protector was non-stick and cleaned up easily. It does get hot in the oven, so be careful.
Also, a nice touch is that the protector has two "notches" cut into it on opposing sides to allow it to fit snugly on a pie pan with handles.

Norpro Silicone Pie Crust Shield Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I finally abandoned aluminum foil and both types of aluminum pie shields in favor of the silicone pie shield. I use my own pie pans and make my own crusts and the aluminum shields never fit quite right. Harold Imports Mrs. Anderson's 9-Inch Pie Shield, Progressive International Pie Crust Shields I bought two of the pie shields, and they worked perfectly on my 9" pie pans even with the decorative edge on the crust. I left them on through the entire baking time, and the edge of the crust turned out nicely browned all the way around. The shield becomes very hot in the oven so care should be taken when handling it.
The shield provides ample protection for the crust without covering the pie filling, and they can be easily removed without worrying about damaging the edge of the crust. Unlike the aluminum shields, the silicon pie shield won't become dented or banged up after a few uses or storage mishaps. This pie shield costs just a tad bit more than the aluminum ones, but it is well worth the extra cents especially if you bake a lot of pies.
The shield is dishwasher safe and oven safe up to 500 degrees F.
