Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons ice water
• 5 cups fresh raspberries
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar.

Step 2

Cut 1 cup of cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add 6 tablespoons of ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

In a large bowl, mix 5 cups of fresh raspberries, 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of lemon zest. Toss gently to combine.

Step 6

Roll out one disc of dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, letting the edges hang over slightly.

Step 7

Pour the raspberry mixture into the prepared crust. Dot the filling with 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.

Step 8

Roll out the second disc of dough into another 12-inch circle. Place it over the filling, trim the excess dough, and crimp the edges to seal the pie.

Step 9

Cut small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 10

In a small bowl, beat 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Brush the top crust with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 11

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Step 12

Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before serving to let the filling set properly.

Step 13

Serve slices of Heavenly Raspberry Pie as is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
