Categories     Dessert     Bake     Quick & Easy     Winter

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

All-purpose flour, for work surface
Pie Crust
2 1/2 heaping cups raisins
2 cups cold water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon milk
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • STEP 1 On a lightly floured work surface, roll 1 piece of pie crust into a 12-inch round. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off the excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate, pressing it into the edges. Cover with plastic wrap; chill pie shell until firm, about 30 minutes. STEP 2 In a medium saucepan, mix together raisins, water, cornstarch, sugar, vinegar, salt, cinnamon, and butter. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Let boil until very thick, stirring constantly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. STEP 3 Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Pour raisin mixture into pie shell. On a lightly floured work surface, roll remaining piece of pie crust into a 12-inch round. Using a 1 1/4-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out 8 decorative heart shapes in a circular pattern, from center of the top crust. Lay over raisin mixture. Trim top and bottom edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang; press lightly to seal, then fold under and press again. Crimp edges as desired. STEP 4 In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk, milk, and salt. Brush egg mixture over crust and place pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Transfer to oven and bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes (or cook for 20 minutes at 425 and turn down to 375 for 30-40 minutes). Preferably the 450 though.
