Ingredients for Apple Raisin Pie

  • Sugar
  • Cornstarch
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (about 6 medium)
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Pastry For Double Crust Pie
  • 4 tablespoons cold margarine or butter

How to Make Apple Raisin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.
  3. Add 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (about 6 medium) and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Gently toss to coat.
  4. Stir in 1 cup raisins.
  5. Gently toss again to combine all ingredients.
  6. Pour the apple and raisin mixture into a 9-inch pastry-lined pie plate.
  7. Dot the top with 4 tablespoons of cold margarine or butter, cut into small pieces.
  8. Cover with the top pie crust. Seal and crimp the edges to create a decorative edge.
  9. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
  11. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
