KitchenCraft Tub of Ceramic Baking Beans (500g)

From KitchenCraft, this tub of ceramic baking beans is designed to support pastry during blind baking, helping your pie crusts keep their shape as they cook. Used inside an empty pastry case, they help prevent the base from bubbling and reduce the chance of the pastry shrinking away from the sides, so you can achieve a more evenly formed crust before adding your filling.

Simply pour the beans into your pie casing over a layer of baking paper and bake as directed in your recipe. Made from ceramic, they are heat resistant and conduct heat from the oven to encourage more even cooking. They are also reusable, making them a practical alternative to dried beans for repeat baking.
