ingredients

CRUST
- 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1⁄2 cup corn oil
- 1⁄3 - 1⁄2 cup apple juice
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
-
FILLING
- 6 cups raspberries (3 pints)

- 1⁄4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
directions
- Preheat oven to 350.

FILLING:
- Rinse your raspberries lightly and set aside to dry. Some people don't rinse them for optimum flavor so if you don't suspect dirt or bugs, skip the rinsing. In a large bowl mix tapioca and sweetener. Add raspberries and gently but thoroughly toss them until they're evenly coated. Let sit while you prepare the crust.

CRUST:
- Mix flour and salt in a medium bowl using a fork. Add oil and mix thoroughly. Add apple juice (use less for a crunchier crust or more for a softer one) and mix well. It will seem very wet but will dry out right away. Form a ball and roll out half the dough between 2 sheets of wax paper. Line a pie plate with the rolled out dough. Prick the bottom and sides a few times to get out any air bubbles. I usually put it in the oven for 5 minutes or so before filling it to prevent sogginess. Roll out the other half of the dough and set aside.
- Fill crust with raspberry filling and top with the top crust. Seal edges and prick the top a few times with a fork to let steam escape. Bake for 50 minutes. Let cool before slicing to allow the filling to set.

I made this with wild raspberries we picked this past summer. Everyone who tried it, loved it. There seemed to be a lot of juice when it was time to slice the pie. I used a different crust recipe (from Saveur.com) that is my go-to crust recipe but otherwise the filling was made exactly as written. I'm not much of a raspberry pie fan so I only had a bite myself, but I thought that with the wild berries I could have used a touch more sugar but that, I think, comes with using wild berries. Will make again and will try it with domestic berries. Thanks!
