Curry Apple Raisin Pie
This recipe was born when i accidentally grabbed the curry instead of the cinnamon, what a pleasant surprise! the curry, if you use just a small amount, gives the pie a subtle nutty, spice flavor. the precooking of the apples, i discovered, guarantees the pie always comes out fully cooked. i never liked partially cooked apples in my pie, this was my fix.
Steps
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- cut apples into small pieces.
- combine sugar , cut apples , raisins , cinnamon , salt , flour , vanilla , and curry until completely incorporated.
- move mixture to a sauce pan and heat on medium fire , stir constantly as sugar will melt quickly and can burn.
- line an oven-proof bowl or casserole pan with bakers paper , and lay crust inside with edges of crust hanging over the edges.
- pour apple mixture into the pie crust , and carefully gather the edges of the pie crust to the middle by pinching the ends together.
If you did this right , it should look like a little white sack with the opening pinched closed in the middle.
- prick top with fork.
- optional: glaze top with mixture of one egg white to 1 tbsp milk.
- bake in oven until crust has a golden color.
