2. Prep Crust: Preheat oven to 425°F. Line pie pan with bottom crust.
3. Layer Base: Sprinkle mozzarella over the crust to prevent sogginess.

Notes

Best served warm. Store leftovers refrigerated up to 4 days or freeze unbaked up to 2 months. For extra crispness, reheat in oven at 375°F for 10 minutes.
