This classic Old-Fashioned Raisin Pie is a delightful combination of sweet, juicy raisins enveloped in a buttery, flaky crust. Perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side, it’s a nostalgic dessert that will transport you back to simpler times.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups raisins 🍇
  • 1 cup water 💧
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 🍬
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt 🧂
  • 1 tsp cinnamon 🌿
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp butter 🧈
  • 2 pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare the bottom pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan.
  • Prepare the Raisin Filling:
    In a medium saucepan, combine the raisins and water. Cook over medium heat until the raisins are plump, about 5 minutes.
  • Make the Sugar Mixture:
    In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon. Add the sugar mixture to the saucepan with the raisins and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Finish the Filling:
    Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool slightly.
  • Assemble the Pie:
    Pour the raisin mixture into the prepared pie crust. Place the top crust over the filling and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust for ventilation.
  • Bake the Pie:
    Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Cool and Serve:
    Allow the pie to cool before slicing. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the perfect finishing touch!

Notes

  • This pie is best enjoyed slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • You can use homemade pie crust for an extra touch of nostalgia, but store-bought works just fine!
