Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 9 inch pie shell
15 ounces raisins (1 pkg, 3 cups)
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons instant Tang orange drink (Any type of Instant Orange Breakfast Drink will do)
1 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

  • Divide the pastry almost in half and roll out the larger half, on a lightly floured surface, to a 13-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry and trim the pastry 1/2 inch beyond the rim of the pie plate. Combine the raisins, brown sugar, corn starch and drink mix in a 3-quart saucepan.
  • Stir in the water and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the walnuts.
  • Turn the mixture into the pastry-lined pie plate and dot with the butter.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry to an 11-inch circle. Place the top crust over filling and trim the edge to 1-inch beyond the rim.
  • Fold the top crust under the bottom crust and form a ridge. Flute the edge and cut steam vents in the top crust. Bake in a preheated 400 degree F.
  • oven for 30 minutes or until the crust is a golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • Cool on a wire rack.
