We sampled nine pie crusts including frozen pie dough from Pillsbury, Trader Joe's, Mrs. Smith's, Marie Callender's, and more to find the best for pies, tarts, and quiches.
The problem with store-bought pie crust isn't that it doesn't taste good—although, don't get me wrong, some of crusts we sampled in this quest to find the best pre-made pie dough were really terrible. The bigger problem is that even the good ones tend to be more shallow than the standard pie dish. That's not too big a deal if you don't mind sacrificing some of your pie filling, but it's an important issue to keep in mind.
But keep this in mind: because of the crust's depth, you might have to be more diligent about checking for the doneness of any custard pies, since a deeper custard could take longer to bake than a more shallow one.
