Williams Sonoma Hand Pie Molds

Yes, these molds work perfectly with both store-bought refrigerated pie crusts and homemade dough. For best results, ensure your dough is chilled before rolling it out to prevent sticking.

No, these molds should be hand-washed only. Using a dishwasher may warp the plastic or damage the hinge mechanism over time.

While the molds themselves are freezer safe, they are designed for shaping and sealing rather than long-term storage. We recommend removing the pies from the molds after sealing and placing them on a baking sheet to freeze before transferring them to a freezer-safe bag or container.

The molds are designed to crimp the edges securely on their own. However, brushing the edges with a little egg wash or water before closing the lid can help create a tighter seal and give your crust a beautiful golden finish.

These molds are versatile enough for both sweet and savory fillings. Just be mindful not to overfill them, as excess filling can leak out during the crimping process; a tablespoon or two is usually the perfect amount.
