Hi Marilyn, glass pie plates can definitely make it more difficult to avoid a soggy bottom, but there are still lots of tips you can follow from this excellent blog post. While we wouldn't recommend putting your glass pie plate on a preheated stone, you could certainly bake it on a parchment-lined baking sheet towards the bottom of your oven. You could even consider partially pre-baking your bottom crust if you opted for a crumb topped apple pie, or used these directions for a simpler top crust offered in the Tips From Our Bakers section of our Apple Pie recipe: For a simple sugar-crumb crust in place of a pastry top crust, work together 1/2 cup each sugar, unbleached all-purpose flour, and butter (8 tablespoons), plus a pinch of salt, until sandy textured. Sprinkle atop the pie in place of the top crust; save the remaining top-crust pastry for another single-crust pie.
