Recipe Introduction


Jill Goodwin
Assistant to the Exec. Producers
This is a splendid recipe for the Thanksgiving week. My Granddaddy made it all the time and it was and still is a big favorite in my family.



List of Ingredients




2 cups raisins
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel (optional)
Pastry for 2 crust pie

Recipe



) Cook raisins in water for a few minutes until raisins are softened. Do not drain.
2) Combine sugar and flour, pour into raisins. Cook until thickened.
3) Stir in vinegar and lemon peel.
4) Pour raisin mixture into uncooked pastry shell. Place the top crust on pie. Homemade pie crust is recommended, any basic 2 crust recipe.
(Smiley face, initials or holiday message cut into top crust optional.)
5) Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
Serve alone or with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy

It doesn't matter if you like or dislike (or feel indifferent toward) raisins...you will love them after this.
