Press the layer of pie crust into the bottom of your pie pan, line the crust with parchment paper, and then place pie weights on top of it. Pre-bake your crust for 15 minutes. Prepare the filling by whisking your sugar and flour together. Grab a separate bowl and whisk the rest of your ingredients. Add the sugar and flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Pour the filling into the pie crust.  Unroll and lay your top crust over the filling, press the edges together using your fingers or a fork, and then use a sharp knife to cut slits in the center of the pie.  Place it in the oven, bake for 45 minutes, and then remove to cool on a rack.  Place it in the fridge for four hours before serving.
