    • Q: Can I substitute butter with a different fat?

A: Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3-4 days.

Helpful tips:

  • For added crunch, sprinkle some granola on top of the pie before baking.
  • Enhance the flavor with a splash of rum or rum extract in the filling.
  • Top the pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream before serving.

Expert Secrets:
