A bottom pie crust can turn out doughy for several reasons, including inadequate baking time, insufficient heat circulation, or a wet filling that releases moisture during baking. If the crust isn't pre-baked (blind-baked) before adding the filling, it may not set properly. Additionally, using too much liquid in the dough or not rolling it thin enough can contribute to a doughy texture. To avoid this, ensure thorough baking, consider blind-baking, and manage moisture levels in the filling.

What is the difference between a single pie crust and a double crust?
A single pie crust is just the bottom crust on a finished pie. For instance, a French Silk or pumpkin pie is a single crust pie.A double crust is a pie that has a bottom, filling and then a top crust to cover the pie. A traditional apple or blueberry pie is a double crust. An apple pie with a crumble topping instead of that second crust on top is a single crust pie.
What is a single pie crust?
A single pie crust is a crust that will fill the bottom of the pie tin - or cover the pie on top - but not both. A double pie crust requires about twice as much dough, and is enough to cover both the bottom and the top.Some pies, like pumpkin, typically have only a bottom crust. Others, like apple pie and meat pies, use both a bottom and a top crust. The top crust functions like a lid on the pie, helping to contain the heat while the contents bake.

What is the difference between a pie and a tart?
The main difference between a pie and a tart is the crust. A pie typically has a bottom and top crust, while a tart usually has just a bottom crust. Pies are often deeper and have a filling that is baked inside the crust, while tarts are shallower and have a filling that is baked on top of the crust.

What is the difference between pie and tarlet?

How do you get the bottom crust more crispy when baking a deep dish frozen apple pie should you use a higher temperature at first?
You may not be able to get the crust of a frozen pie crisped to your satisfaction. The problem is that as the pie filling thaws, moisture seeps into the crust causing it to be soggy. This seems to be the nature of frozen pies. Using a higher temperature would scorch the top crust without improving the bottom crust. If making a pie from scratch is not possible, one might try removing the filling, crisping the bottom crust in the oven for 20 minutes, then returning the filling and top crust to the pie and baking until done.
