Bakers share the store-bought pie crusts they trust for easy homemade pies.

Making pie crust from scratch can be rewarding, but it also takes time and a little practice. Store-bought crusts can make the process easier, whether you need a quick option for a weeknight dessert or want to simplify your holiday baking. To find the best options, Eat This, Not That! asked bakers which store-bought pie crusts they turn to in their own kitchens. Here are the top eight picks.

Jus-Rol Shortcrust Pastry comes as a pre-rolled sheet, making it particularly convenient for pies and other baked dishes. The pastry can also be used beyond traditional fruit pies, including tarts and savory recipes. “Jus-Rol Shortcrust Pastry is the best option because the product is intended to reduce preparation time for making a pie while providing a nice crispy golden color on the outside of your pie, regardless if you are making a sweet or savory pie,” explains Mark McShane, Chef | Food Safety Expert at Level 3 Food Hygiene Certificate. He adds, “A key benefit in this product is the pre-rolled sheet, which allows me to place it right into my pie pan, eliminating the need for me to have to roll out the dough by hand; and the baking paper that it includes makes it easy to handle. Since it has a standard shortcrust pastry recipe, I could also make multiple types of pies such as fruit pies, tarts, quiche, and savory pies.”
