You can line the crust with parchment or foil and weigh it down with dry beans (don't try to cook them after they've baked - they are hard as rocks).

I know of no version of corn pie that would need baking powder. Most are custard based but don't use leavening. A couple call for a little flour, but baking powder wouldn't work and isn't necessary.
