3/4 cup raisins (can include dried cranberries and/or cherries)
1 1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
Nutmeg
Soak raisins in warm
water 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and chop
well. Line pan with pastry and flute
edges. Put raisins in crust. Mix remaining ingredients except nutmeg. Pour over raisins. Sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake on bottom shelf of oven at 350 degrees about 30 minutes until
custard is firm.
My Grandmother Martin made this
pie for "Pie Day," a monthly event in Sutton, North
Dakota, when I was a little girl. The
ladies would bring pies and fix sloppy joes in a small brick building that had
been a bank when the town was larger.
People from town and the surrounding countryside would stop by to eat
lunch. A sloppy joe, a piece of pie, and
a cup of coffee cost less than a dollar. This was one of my favorite pies.
