As noted by another reviewer, the recipe appears to make two pies. However, while baking, the filling expands considerably. Within 15 minutes, the pies were overflowing, and the kitchen was full of smoke. I suggest only filling sells 2/3 - 3/4 full to allow for expansion. The pie is good. The poor rating is based on the recipe not giving good instructions.
