Recipe of the Week - Pie

Let there be pie! My husband's favorite dessert is pie. I probably don't make them as often as he would like however. My grandfather requested a special pie for Christmas this year; Raisin pie. David had never had a raisin pie before so I was hoping he would like it. He did, so now he joins the few of my family who do. So if you have never tried raisin pie before, here is a very easy recipe for you to try! Be sure to link up your favorite pie recipe below and include a button from my Recipe of the Week Link Up page. Be sure to spread the word about this link up!

Raisin Pie

 

1 cup sugar

2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups cold water

2 cups raisins

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

1 Pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches)  

In a saucepan, stir together sugar and flour. Add water and mix well. Stir in raisins, salt and cinnamon; cook and stir over medium heat until bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Pour into a pastry-lined pie plate. Top with lattice crust, or cover with top crust and cut slits for steam to escape. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown
