Thanks for the tips, but I need some help... I am baking already frozen fruit pies (fruit filling has not been cooked first), for a wedding--never have done this before-- and I am using rented space large commercial convection ovens to bake them. I had a trial run and the 2 pies I baked were perfectly golden brown, but the filling did not thicken--not enough baking time??? and the bottom crust was soggy. How does one accommodate for the confection oven baking time and temp. ??? I baked them at 375 for 1 hour. Thank you for your help--needed very soon!!! Trish, hard to say, since there's no telling how much thickener or what kind is in the filling. if I were you, I'd tent with aluminum foil to avoid over-browning, and bake a lot longer - like at least 2 hours, maybe longer. Do a trial run with 1 pie first, see what happens. Also - when you say the filling didn't thicken - did you let it sit for at least 6 to 8 hours, preferably overnight, before making that assessment? It will continue to thicken as it sits. For more info, try calling our baker's hotline: 855-371-2253. Good luck - PJH
