Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups fresh raspberries
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 0.33 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 piece pre-baked 9-inch pie crust
- whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
1. Rinse and gently pat dry the fresh raspberries. Set aside 1 cup of the best-looking raspberries to use as garnish later.

3. Add 5 cups of raspberries to the saucepan and gently stir to coat the berries with the sugar mixture.

6. Pour the cooled raspberry filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
7. Arrange the reserved whole raspberries on top of the filling to create an attractive garnish.
8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours, or until completely set.
