fresh raspberry pie
Makes a really nice raspberry pie. I've never tried anything but fresh berries with it. It's very simple. Make your own crust or the crust rolled up and ready to go! I usually make mine and let it sit most of the day, or make it in the evening and let it sit all night for the juices to soak up and the pie to set. Hope you like it!

Fresh raspberry pie is perfect for summer. Tart and sweet, this easy-to-make pie tastes a lot like a cobbler with its bubbling fresh raspberry flavor and flaky crust. Serve with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream for a fantastic summer dessert.

How To Make fresh raspberry pie
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 400 F. Combine sugar, corn starch, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Stir to mix.
-
Step 2Add lemon juice to the berries.
-
Step 3Pour sugar mixture over berries and GENTLY stir.
-
Step 4Pour berries into an unbaked pie shell. Dot with a tablespoon of butter.
-
Step 5Place crust on top and make slits to let steam vent.
-
Step 6Brush the top with a little milk or cream.
-
Step 7Sprinkle with sugar.
-
Step 8I place a ring around mine to keep the edges from burning. Or you can use foil to cover the edges. With either one, I would spray the side touching the crust with Pam to keep it from sticking to the crust because of the milk you brush on. I have forgotten to do this a couple of times and it always sticks if I don't.
-
Step 9Bake at 400 F for 20 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 350 F and bake another 25-35 minutes, depending on your oven. Mine usually takes 30 minutes and then I turn off my oven and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
-
Step 10Let sit for several hours for the juices to soak up.
