Categories     Dessert

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 cup Concord grapes (about 2 pounds or 2 quarts)
2 Tablespoon instant tapioca
2/3 cup sugar
Your favorite pie crust

Steps:

  • Wash the grapes.
  • Slip the skin off the grapes. Gently squeeze the grapes until the green pulp pops out and separates from the skin. Put the pulp in a sauce pan and the grape skins in a separate bowl.
  • Place the saucepan with the pulp on medium heat and bring to boiling. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-10 minutes. The pulp should break down and the seeds should start floating freely.
  • Put the boiled pulp through a colander to remove the seeds. Put the pulp in the same bowl as the grape skins.
  • Add the tapioca and sugar to the bowl of grape skins and grape pulp and stir well.
  • Refrigerate the mixture for at least an hour to allow it to gel.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 F.
  • Roll out a pie crust and put it in the bottom of the pie tin.
  • Pour the chilled filling into the pie crust.
  • Top the pie with a floating crust or lattice or just cut some vent holes in the top crust.
  • If you like brush the pie crust with an egg wash made from a beaten egg to make it brown nicely.
  • Put a cookie sheet under the pie in the oven because the filling tends to bubble over the edges of the pie plate.
  • Bake at 400 F for 15 minutes. Then check the edges and cover them with a pie shield or foil if they are brown.
  • Continue to bake until the middle of the crust is light brown, about 30 minutes.
  • Makes enough filling for one 9" pie or three 4" mini pies

CONCORD GRAPE PIE

Learn how to make the best Concord Grape Pie with an easy-to-follow, family recipe. Grape pie with streusel topping has easy, step-by-step instructions full of tips and tricks for making homemade grape pie filling.

Provided by Melissa Erdelac

Categories     Dessert     Pie

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 cups washed, de-stemmed concord grapes ((about 2 1/2 lbs. with stems on))
1 cup sugar
⅓ cup all-purpose flour or gluten free flour, ((I recommend Cup 4 Cup gluten-free flour))
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ cup all-purpose flour or gluten free flour, ((I recommend Cup 4 Cup gluten-free flour))
½ cup sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter, (softened)
1 pie crust shell (store bought or homemade)

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 400ºF.
  • Gently squeeze the grapes so the pulp slips out of the skin into a medium saucepan. Separate the skins into a small bowl and set aside to use in pie filling.
  • Bring pulp of grapes to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and immediately pour through mesh strainer fitted over a bowl to separate seeds from pulp. Press and stir so ALL the pulp is extracted into the bowl. Scrape the bottom of the mesh strainer occasionally to get the pulp from there too. When you are done you should be left with only the seeds, and you won't be able to get anymore pulp out. Discard seeds.
  • Place butter into bowl of hot pulp and let it sit for a few minutes until it melts. When butter is melted, whisk in lemon juice, sugar, flour, and salt until smooth. Stir the reserved skins into the pulp mixture.
  • Pour grape mixture into the unbaked pie shell and prepare the streusel topping. (11/3/2019 NOTE: Some readers have said the filling was too much for their pie. Either split between 2 pie shells or freeze half the filling for future use to not risk pie overflowing.) With a fork mix all ingredients together until butter is well incorporated. Sprinkle topping over pie filling.
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and grape filling is bubbly throughout. Cool for at least an hour before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or at room temperature. Store leftovers on counter, uncovered*.

CONCORD GRAPE AND PEAR PIE



Concord Grape and Pear Pie image

There's no substitute for the color and pure grape flavor offered by concord grapes. This ultimate fall pie combines concords with juicy pears and a festive top crust. If you'd rather skip the cookie-cutter step, use the second disc of dough to make a double crust.

Provided by Rhoda Boone

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the pie crust:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces and frozen for 15 minutes
1/2 cup chilled solid vegetable shortening, cut into pieces and refrigerated for 15 minutes
1 large egg, beaten
Coarse sugar, for sprinkling
For the filling:
1 pound concord grapes (about 4 cups grapes)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 pounds medium-ripe Anjou or Bosc pears, peeled, quartered, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 7 pears)
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Special equipment:
9-inch pie pan, a 1 1/2- to 2-inch cookie cutter, preferably leaf-shaped

Steps:

  • Make the pie dough:
  • In the bowl of a food processor, pulse 2 1/2 cups flour, salt, and sugar. Add butter and shortening and pulse until coarse, pea-sized crumbs form, about 10 seconds. With the machine running, add 5 tablespoons ice water and process until the dough just holds together, about 30 seconds. Squeeze a small amount of dough between your fingers: If it is very crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time (2 tablespoons maximum). Do not over process.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and push together into a rough ball. Knead a few times to combine. Divide the dough into two equally sized balls. Flatten dough balls into discs with smooth edges (no cracks), cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Make the filling:
  • Meanwhile, stir together grapes and sugar in a large pot. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil. Continue to cook until grapes are broken down and juice has thickened, about 20 minutes more.
  • Place a fine-mesh sieve over a large bowl and strain grape mixture into the bowl, pressing on the solids to release all the liquid. Discard solids in strainer. Return strained grape mixture to pot and add pears (reserve bowl). Cook until liquid releases and thickens but pears still retain their shape, 15 to 20 minutes more, depending on ripeness of pears. Gently stir in the cornstarch, lemon juice, and salt and pour grape-pear filling into the bowl and let cool while you roll out the dough.
  • Roll out the dough:
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a 13-inch round. Roll the dough loosely around the rolling pin, and then unfurl it into the 9-inch pie pan. Gently lift and settle the dough into the pan. Trim the excess dough using scissors, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Tuck the edge of the dough under itself, and then crimp as desired. Chill at least 30 minutes.
  • Roll out the other disc of dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use the cookie cutter to cut as many shapes as possible from the rolled-out dough as possible (re-rolling scraps if desired). Transfer shapes to a baking sheet and chill at least 30 minutes.
  • Assemble pie:
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F with one rack on the bottom rung and one rack in the center of oven. Place a rimmed baking sheet on the bottom rack to preheat.
  • Pour filling into chilled pie shell (do not overfill). Brush the edge of the pie and the cut shapes on the baking sheet with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Arrange the cut shapes on top of the filling, working in a spiral fashion and overlapping slightly, allowing some of the filling to peek through. Chill pie for 30 minutes.
  • Bake pie on preheated rimmed baking sheet on bottom rack of oven. After 30 minutes, rotate baking sheet and move it to the center rack of oven. Bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling, 25 to 35 minutes more (cover the crust edge with foil or a pie shield if it starts to brown too much). Transfer pie to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing, about 3 hours. Pie will keep up to 2 days, loosely covered with foil, at room temperature.

CONCORD GRAPE PIE



Concord Grape Pie image

The local tradition of purple pies began sometime in the 1960s with Al Hodges, who commissioned Irene Bouchard to make a unique grape dessert for the Redwood Restaurant in Naples. Forty years later, thousands come to the village of Naples to celebrate the grape harvest and sample the native grape pies. The robust flavor of Concord grapes makes this unusual pie a treat. You will have to peel each grape, but the delicious results are well worth the effort.

Yield makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
1/2 cup vegetable shortening, chilled and cut into small pieces
6 to 7 tablespoons cold water
4 cups Concord grapes
1 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 tablespoons tapioca
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • To make the pie crust, mix together the flour and salt in a bowl. Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut in the butter and shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle the water over the mixture a tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly after each addition, until the dough can be formed into a ball. Divide the dough into two pieces, form each piece into a ball, and allow them to rest for 15 minutes before rolling out.
  • To make the filling, slip the skins off the grapes and reserve them. Put the grape pulp in a saucepan and simmer over medium-low heat just until soft enough to release the seeds, about 8 minutes. Push the grape pulp through a wire-mesh strainer to remove the seeds. Combine the pulp in a bowl with the reserved grape skins.
  • Roll out each ball of dough on a well-floured board until they are 10 to 11 inches in diameter. Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan with a round of dough. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Mix the sugar, salt, and tapioca together in a bowl and spread about half of the mixture onto the bottom of the crust. Mix the remaining tapioca mixture with the grapes and add the lemon juice. Pour the pie filling into the crust and dot with the butter. Cover with the top crust and crimp the edges to seal. Bake for 10 minutes, and then lower the temperature to 350°F and bake for another 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 30 minutes before serving. If not serving immediately, warm the pie in an oven set on the lowest temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
