Indulgent Two-Crust Raisin Pie, best enjoyed with a dollop of sweet whipped cream.
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 cups raisins
  • 1.5 cups boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 0.5 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Carefully wash the raisins, then simmer them in boiling water until tender. Combine flour and sugar, then add to the cooked raisins. Stir until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and mix in lemon juice, lemon rind, and nuts. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  • Roll out the dough and gently place it into a 9-inch pie pan. Fill the shell with the prepared filling. Top with another crust, crimp the edges beautifully, and make a few decorative slashes on the top.
  • Bake until the crust turns a beautiful golden brown, approximately 40-45 minutes.
