Classic Old-Fashioned Raisin Pie
Instructions
1. Make the Filling
- In a medium pot, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and water until smooth.
- Stir in orange juice, zest, lemon juice, and raisins.
- Cook over medium heat until bubbling and thickened, then simmer for 1 more minute.
2. Add Walnuts & Cool
- Remove from heat, stir in walnuts, and let the mixture cool completely.
3. Prepare the Crust
- Line a 9-inch pie plate with one crust.
- Fill with the cooled raisin mixture.
- Cover with the second crust, sealing the edges, and cut small vents on top.
4. Finish & Bake
- Brush with beaten egg white and sprinkle lightly with sugar.
- Bake at 400°F for 35–40 minutes, shielding with foil if the crust browns too quickly.
5. Cool & Serve
- Let the pie cool at least 1 hour before slicing.
This Raisin Pie is a slice of tradition—simple, hearty, and full of flavor. Serve warm or at room temperature, and you’ll see why it deserves a place alongside the classic pies.
