Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Raisins
- 2 Cups Orange Juice
- 2 Tbsp Cornstarch
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
- 2 Tsp Lemon Zest
- 2 Tbsp Butter (or Margarine)
- 3 Tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 - Egg
- 1 Tbsp Water
- 1 5/8 Cups White Sugar
Directions
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C)
- Combine the raisins, 1 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice, cornstarch and salt in a medium sauce pan. Simmer over medium heat until bubbly and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. The mixture will seem thin, but the raisins will absorb the liquid. Remove from heat. Stir in the lemon zest, butter and lemon juice. Cool completely.
- Turn the cooled filling into the prepared crust, leaving room at the edges for sealing and crimping the top pastry. On a lightly floured board, roll out the remaining disk of dough into a circle 1/8 inch (.3 cm) thick. Cut into ten 3/4 inch (1.8 cm) strips using a knife or decorative crimp-er. Weave a lattice, beginning at the center of the pie. Trim the strips, seal and flute the edges. Brush with the egg wash (egg and water beaten together) and sprinkle with the 1 tbsp(15ml) sugar.
- If time allows, chill for 30 minutes. Bake for 10 minutes, reduce the temperature to 350 F (175 C) and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling in the center.
- Server slightly warm or at room temperature. Store lightly covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
