Yes that sounds great. My mom use to make it for us. The recipe sounds just about the way she did it. Now I want some pie.
ReplyDeleteSusan and Russ: I see I'm bringing back pleasant memories for both of you with this raisin pie. :-) There's no good reason why raisin pies have fallen out of fashion. They are so tasty. Thank you for sharing your own vintage recipes with me.
ReplyDeleteThis pie would be great for Thanksgiving or Christmas! I'm not a big fan of pumpking so I'm going to give this a try! I've added Spudnuts today. Have a great weekend Joy!
