jk. It’s a bit funky but I really like the cupcake form factor for pies so I cut a prying tool out of the flat side of a flexible plastic food container. It’s flexible enough to bend a bit to the sides but strong enough to lever up from the bottom. Works perfectly with dough based crust, for cookie based crust I warmed the bottom of the cupcake pan a little to help the crust release. That said there was still some crust stickiness so next time I’ll try putting cut parchment paper rounds at the bottom
