Crust

Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the chilled, cubed butter and mix with a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 2

    Add Water

    Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork it.

  3. 3

    Chill the Dough

    Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    Once chilled, roll out the dough on a floured surface into a circle large enough to fit your pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish and trim any excess.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat the raspberries without mashing them.

  2. 6

    Mix Eggs and Cream

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.

  3. 7

    Combine Mixtures

    Fold the raspberry mixture into the egg and cream mixture until evenly distributed.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 8

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 9

    Fill the Crust

    Pour the raspberry and cream filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.

  3. 10

    Bake

    Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.

  4. 11

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
