Pies And Tarts (A Quick Guide To Baking Times)
"Far too many times I have had my pie or tart filling made, the shells prepared all ready to go, only to have to back track and dig through my recipe book for the baking time. Found an easy solution, printed a guide which I keep in my recipe drawer close at hand, ready to go. Works for me, hope others find this baking chart as handy as I do. Here are some average baking times."
