Fresh Raspberry Pie

Since the raspberry season is just beginning...it's time to roll out those berry recipes!

We had a birthday party at the beach for two special 'sons' last night...and found out that fresh raspberry pie with a sparkler makes a fine birthday cake.

Fresh Raspberry Pie
  • 1 baked 9 or 10-inch pie crust
  • 4 cups of fresh raspberries
Glaze:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons raspberry jello
  • 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
  1. In 4-cup glass measure or small mixing bowl, combine water, sugar and cornstarch.
  2. Microwave at High for 2 to 5 minutes (until thickened and clear) stirring every minute.
  3. Stir in raspberry jello....cool 10 minutes.
  4. Pour carefully over the berries in the pie shell.
  5. Refrigerate several hours...serve with whipped cream.

Enjoy the ultimate summer dessert...together with some good friends.

* Note...the glaze is one I adapted from a fresh peach pie recipe and works well in any flavour!
