2. Prepare a 9-inch baking pan by greasing it with butter or oil.
3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out the dough to 6 mm thick, place the pie crust in the pan and fold the edges decoratively. Prick the crust lightly with a fork, cover crust with foil or parchment paper and fill with dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, remove foil, beans and bake for about 5 minutes more.
