Can you bake a pie without baking beans?

[Spagblog]

I realised that I can't find mine. I haven't seen them since before we moved home.
Can I use something else?

Do you have marrowfat peas the dried variety ??

You can use any dry things that has a bit of weight, just use baking parchment between pastry and the item chosen. In need I would use rice.

Yes you can easily do without ! I hardly ever use mine to be honest !

Just make sure you prick well and it'll be fine.

Just remembered my DMum used to use metal cutlery.

Thanks. Our dinner is saved!

You still going on about marrowfat peas LGJ?
