Ingredients
- Double crust pastry (homemade or store-bought)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups (10 oz. package) raspberries (fresh or frozen-if frozen, thawed but UNDRAINED)
- 2 cups fresh peach slices (can also use a 1 lb.,13 oz. can of peaches, DRAINED)
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
-
While making the pie filling, preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
-
Prepare a double crust pastry shell. Place one of the crusts into a 9" pie pan. Prick the bottom of the crust with the tines of a fork.
-
Place the granulated sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon into a medium sized pan. Gently stir in the (undrained) raspberries. Cook this, (while stirring constantly so it won't stick) on medium heat until it begins to thicken, and comes to a boil.
-
Stir in the sliced (drained) peaches, and the lemon juice. Once ingredients are all combined, pour the pie filling into the pie pastry shell.
-
Put the other pie crust on top of the filling; seal the two crusts together around edges, then decoratively flute the edges.
-
Using a sharp knife, make a couple small slits in the center of the top crust.
-
Bake pie in preheated 425 degree oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the crust has begun to turn golden brown.
-
Remove pie to a wire rack to cool.
-
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream... and enjoy!
