    Raspberry Peach Pie


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    9" pastry shell - baked
    4 peaches
    1 kiwi
    2 c raspberries
    1 c sugar
    2 T. water
    1/2 tsp grated lime peel
    3.5 T. cornstarch
    4 egg yolks
    2 c milk
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 tsp rum extract

    Recipe



    Peel and remove pits from peaches, slice in eighths and set aside.

    Peel Kiwi. Cut into slices and reserve the best 5.

    Using a potato masher crush 1 cup of the raspberries along with 1/4 cup of sugar and the water. Set aside, to allow the sugar to pull the juices out from the flesh of the fruit.

    Sift together 3 TBSP cornstarch and remaining sugar. Mix in the lime peel. Set aside.

    Beat egg yolks until thick and frothy. Slowly beat in the sugar mixture. Then add the milk in a slow steady pour, stirring the whole while.

    Place the milk/egg mixture on the stove. Cook over a low heat - STIRRING CONSTANTLY - until mixture will coat the back of a spoon.

    Remove from heat. Let stand for 5-10 minutes. Add the extracts.

    Pour into pie crust and allow to cool for at least 1 hour. In this time the custard will get nice and firm.

    Decorate top of pie with peach slices and reserved whole raspberries. Top that with the Kiwi slices (one in center and 4 around sides at even intervals).

    Strain the reserved raspberry sugar mixture and press to remove all juices. You should get about 1 cup. Mix with remaining cornstarch and cook over low heat until mixture is thickened and shiny.

    Spoon or drizzle the glaze over the entire top of the pie. Making sure to cover every piece of fruit, without dripping over the edge.

    Chill for an additional hour before serving.
