509 - Raisin Pie

(by Phyllis [Neff] Moyer - friend)


2 - 9" unbaked pie crust doughs
2 cups Sunmaid raisins
1 cup white sugar
2 cups water
1/2 tsp. salt
2 TBSP butter
3 TBSP lemon juice
1 tsp. lemon extract
2 TBSP cornstarch
3 TBSP water

In a saucepan add raisins, white sugar, water, salt, butter, lemon juice, and lemon
extract--stir and bring to a boil, then boil for 5 minutes--do NOT drain. While raisins
are cooking use a cup to dissolve cornstarch in 3 TBSP cold water--stir until
dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the raisin mixture on the stovetop after the
raisins have cooked for the 5 minutes--stir and cook 3 minutes longer. Spray pie plate
with Pam, place pie dough in pie plate, spray inside of pie dough with Pam, and pour
raisin mixture into the pie dough. Place second pie dough on top and seal (pinch the
two crusts all the way around--if you didn't spray with Pam, you will need to use water
to seal the edges). Flute the edges of the top pie dough. Bake at 425 degrees for 25
minutes.
