Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Allow the sourdough crust to rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. This will make it easier to roll out.
-
Place the dough on a liberally floured surface and roll the dough into a rough 12-inch circle shape with about a 1/8-inch thickness. Tip: flour the rolling pin to avoid sticking.
-
Start by rolling the dough from the center to outward and turning it after each roll.
-
Use your rolling pin to lift the pie crust into the pie dish and press the crust into the dish.
-
Using your thumb and index finger, pinch the dough gently together in a decorative pattern or simply fit the crust to the pie dish.
-
You can trim any excess dough with a knife or simply fold the dough into itself. Make sure the edges are at least 3mm thick to avoid them collapsing.
-
Make sure to pierce some holes in the bottom of the crust before baking.

I like to chill the pie crust for about 30 minutes before baking. However, this is optional.
