Fresh Raspberry Pie
Ingredients
  • 4 cups fresh raspberries, divided
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 (9 inch) ready-to-use refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 cup whipped cream for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest for garnish
Instructions
1
Combine 1 cup of raspberries and 1/2 cup of water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring periodically to prevent scorching, until the berries become tender and lose their shape, approximately 5 minutes.
2
Transfer the mixture to a bowl using a fine mesh sieve, discarding the seeds in the process.
3
Return the mashed berries to the saucepan and proceed with the recipe.
4
Mix 1/4 cup of cold water with a spoonful of cornstarch in a separate bowl until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
5
Gradually pour this mixture into the saucepan with the mashed berries, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
6
Add a spoonful of sugar to the mixture and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens, approximately 5 minutes.
7
Stir in a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance the flavor. Allow the mixture to cool down to room temperature, which can take anywhere from 15 to 25 minutes.
8
Arrange the remaining 3 cups of raspberries in a pie crust, followed by a generous helping of the raspberry sauce. Refrigerate until set, approximately 1 hour.
9
Top the pie with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of lemon zest for added flavor and visual appeal.
