Sour Cream Raisin Pie

I like raisin pie but often find them a little too sweet. So if you feel the same then this is the pie for you. I like the creamy and tart flavor that sour cream adds to this pie.

• 2 cups raisins
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Pastry for 8" pie, double crust, unbaked

1. Combine raisins, water, and sour cream in saucepan, bring to boil and cook for 4 minutes until raisins are plump.
2. Whisk together brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon. Stir this into the raisins, continue to cook and keep stirring until thick.
3. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla. Cool slightly.
4. Pour into an 8" unbaked pie shell. Cover with top crust and cut slits to vent.
5. Bake in 425º oven for 25 to 30 minutes until golden in color.
6. Cool, serve with vanilla ice cream. Delicious.
