Operation
Before Your First Use
- Carefully unpack your Pie Maker. Remove all packaging materials.
- Place the appliance on a flat, level surface close to a 220-240 volt wall outlet. Open the Pie Maker Lid.
- Wipe the Cooking Plates with a damp cloth so that they are clean.
- Wipe the outside of the Housing with a soft damp cloth. NEVER immerse the power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
- Close the appliance.
- Plug into the wall outlet and pre-heat for 10 minutes.
You may notice some smoking coming from your Pie Maker during this initial phase, this is normal.
Season the cooking plates with vegetable oil and rub off excess with a paper towel. There is no need to season the plates again.
WARNING: Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners on any part of the appliance.
Using Your Smart Pie Maker
Place your pie maker on a stable, level surface. Close the cover and plug into a 220-240 volt AC outlet only. The red light will turn on indicating that the appliance is powered on and preheating. In approximately 3- 8 minutes the green light will illuminate when the appliance is preheated and ready for use. The green light will cycle on and off during the cooking process indicting that the correct temperature is being maintained. Always keep the cover closed when preheating or in-between uses.
Cakes & Muffins
- If making cakes and muffins fill the mould directly with approximately 2/3rds full unless the recipe states otherwise. Close the cover and press the Locking Latch in until it clicks.
- Set a timer for the specified time as indicated in your recipe. You will notice the green ready light will cycle on and off during the cooking process indicating that the correct temperature is being maintained.
- When the cooking time is complete unplug the pie maker from the wall outlet. Pull the Locking latch-up from the bottom and carefully lift the lid. If you need additional browning simply close the lid and set the timer to the desired additional time.
- Carefully remove the cake or muffin from the mould by using a nylon or wooden spatula. Do not use metal utensils to avoid damaging the nonstick surface.
Pies & Tarts
- If making pies and tarts use the Reversible Pie Cutter to make the moulds. The larger side is for the pie bottom and the smaller for the pie top. The slits in the mould bottom allow you to overlap the dough for a better fit in the mould.
- Unless the recipe states otherwise we recommend using Puff Pastry dough for the tops and standard pie dough for the bottom. If using store brought dough you can find Puff Pastry dough in the freezer section of your supermarket. Pie dough is usually found in the refrigerated section with muffins and cookies.
- Open the Pie Maker and place the large bottom dough over the Pie Mold. Add your fillings according to the recipe instructions. The weight of the fillings will cause the dough to drop down into the mould. You can also use the bottom of a ladle to gently press the dough into the mould, being careful not to tear the dough.
WARNING! Surfaces are hot. Never touch the cooking surface directly with your fingers
- If your recipe calls for a top, place the moulded dough top over the filled mould and close the cover. Press the locking latch in until you hear a click indicating that it is locked.
- Set a timer for the specified time as indicated in your recipe. You will notice the green ready light will cycle on and off during the cooking process indicating that the correct temperature is being maintained.
- When the cooking time is complete unplug the pie maker from the wall outlet. Pull the Locking latch-up from the bottom and carefully lift the lid. If you need additional browning simply close the lid and set the timer to the desired time.
- Carefully remove the pie from the mould by using a nylon or wooden spatula. Do not use metal utensils to avoid damaging the nonstick surface.
