Thank you. My crust is shrinking and I really don't know what to do. I'll try your method.

[@PinchofMintCookingChannel]

You’re welcome, the crust will often shrink when the pastry doesn’t have enough time to rest/relax after making it and then after rolling it out. So i would recommend resting the pastry for 1 hour in the fridge before rolling it out and try resting it in the fridge again once it’s rolled out and pressed into the tin for a similar amount of time. Good luck and I hope this helps!

Can these be safely packed up and frozen at pre-baked stage and baked stage for later use? ❤
