That's what we're here for Ethan, to throw down the baking play-by-play! For the sake of efficiency, we like to bake the pie and the crust topping all at once. You can use tongs or your finger to quickly pull the stars off the sheet once they reach the right amount of doneness and then allow them to cool on a cooling wrack while the rest continues to bake in the oven. This way you can put the stars and stripes on top of the warm pie after it comes out of the oven, which helps to secure them in place. Happy baking! Kye@KAF
