Notes
To brown the pastry sides more, lift the baked pie from the tin using parchment, place it on a baking tray, and return to the oven for 5 minutes. Then return it to the loaf tin to keep its shape.
Use festive pastry cutters or a knife to decorate the pie top before baking.
Assemble up to 24 hours ahead and chill until baking.
Freeze unbaked and defrost in the fridge for 24 hours before baking.
