Fresh Raspberry Pie

I made a raspberry pie! It was rather tart though - I have never used lemon zest and I didn't measure so it was more of a lemon-berry pie. I think next time a little more sugar and a lot less lemon!

Fresh Raspberry Pie Recipe

2/3 to 3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tbsp all purpose flour or quick cooking tapioca pudding

1/2 tsp grated lemon rind (optional in my opinion - made the pie too sour)

1 tsp lemon juice

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp salt

4 cups berries

1 tbsp butter

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Bake in uncooked crust and add stripes to top of pie. Bake @ 450 for 15 minutes then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
