Norwegian Sour Cream and Raisin Pie

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish: Used to bake the pie.
  • Mixing bowl: Used to combine the sour cream, sugar, flour, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Whisk or electric mixer: Used to beat and mix the filling ingredients.
  • Baking sheet: Placed under the pie dish for easier handling and to catch any drips.
  • Spatula: Used to smooth the filling in the pie crust.
  • Wire rack: Used to cool the baked pie.
  • Knife: Used to slice the pie into portions.
  • Storage container with lid: Used to store leftover pie.

Ingredients

  • 1 9- inch pie crust
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs large
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions

Preparing the Pie Crust:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish.
  • Trim and crimp the edges of the crust.
  • Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
  • Place the pie crust in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
  • Estimated Prep Time: 10 minutes

Mixing the Filling:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, granulated sugar, and all-purpose flour.
  • Beat the mixture until well combined and smooth.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed.
  • Estimated Prep Time: 10 minutes

Assembling the Pie:

  • Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  • Smooth the surface with a spatula.
  • Place the pie dish on a baking sheet for easier handling.
  • Estimated Prep Time: 5 minutes

Baking the Pie:

  • Place the baking sheet with the pie in the preheated oven.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  • To check if the pie is done, insert a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
  • If the edges of the crust start to brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
  • Estimated Cooking Time: 40-45 minutes

Cooling and Serving:

  • Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Once cooled, refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • Slice the pie into 8 portions using a sharp knife.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Use a store-bought pie crust to save time and effort.
Soak the raisins in warm water for 10-15 minutes to plump them up before adding to the filling.
Preheat the oven in advance to ensure it reaches the desired temperature.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills or drips during baking.
Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing to achieve clean and neat slices.
Dust the pie with powdered sugar or garnish with whipped cream for an extra touch of sweetness.
