Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine the raisins and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes until the raisins are plump. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the sour cream and vanilla extract to the eggs and whisk until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the sour cream mixture, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
Stir the cooked raisins (including any remaining liquid) into the filling mixture, ensuring everything is evenly incorporated.
Pour the filling into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.
Once cooled, the pie can be served immediately or chilled for a firmer texture.
