Place the pie on a parchment-lined baking sheet (to catch any drips), and put the pie and baking sheet onto the lowest rack of your oven. Bake the pie for 20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 60 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

I wonder if anyone has tried this?
Instead of baking at 400°(F) or 350° or temp shifting, bake at 200° or 250° for a longer time.
I am thinking about this mostly in relation to apple pie or other pie that isnt custard or otherwise dairy based.

FAQ
How long should pies be baked for?
A pie with a raw fruit filling will bake for about an hour. Berry, apple, and pear pies cook for about 45 minutes. When using a pre-cooked filling, pies can bake at a higher temperature for a shorter period of time, just enough to thoroughly bake the crust and heat the filling.
How long to bake pie crust at 350?
If your recipe doesn’t have instructions and you’re wondering how long to pre bake the pie, here’s what I do: I pre bake the prepped pie crust at 350°F. If the crust is homemade from scratch, I pre bake for 35 minutes. If the crust is store-bought, I pre bake for 30 minutes.
Do you bake a pie covered or uncovered?
Wrapping the crust edge is recommended for all kinds of pies: fruit pies and meat pies, frozen and fresh, homemade and store-bought. Without wrapping the crust, the edges will likely burn if you try to bake the pie until the center crust is browned. The crust edge is thinner and easily burns.
Can you bake a pie at 350 instead of 400?
ABSOLUTELY! If you have more time cooking at lower temperatures can be great because you will get more even cooking. Avoiding the burnt edges on your cake and the under baked middle (which sinks as it cools) is an excellent idea.
