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.
