Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pre-made or homemade crust Pie crust
- 5 medium Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 0.5 cup Golden raisins
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Curry powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 Egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Water (for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin slices and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Add the golden raisins, brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, curry powder, ground ginger, salt, and lemon juice to the bowl. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the apple and raisin mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Dot the filling with small pieces of unsalted butter for added richness.
If using a top crust, roll it out and place it over the filling. Trim any excess crust, seal the edges by crimping, and cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Alternatively, use a lattice design for the top crust.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the top crust for a golden-brown finish.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours to let the filling set before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
