Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh raspberries
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups water
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries, granulated sugar, and water. Stir gently to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and allow the mixture to cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries begin to break down and release their juices.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a smooth slurry.
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the simmering raspberry mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Cook the mixture for another 2-3 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and unsalted butter until fully incorporated.
Allow the raspberry pie filling to cool slightly before using it in a pie crust, as a topping, or storing it in the fridge in an airtight container.
