Very old pie you just don't hear about anymore. The base recipe is over 100 years old, I had to tweak the meringue due to most people just not knowing how to make it without more information. Plus I cheated and used store purchased crust.
1 8" pie crust (refrigerator section of grocery store)
1 cup Sour Cream
1/2 cup seeded raisins, finely chopped
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cloves
pinch of salt
1/2 cup sugar + 1/3 cup sugar
3 eggs
3/4 tsp cornstarch
Pre-bake the pie crust according to instructions on box.
Separate the yolks from the whites on the eggs, reserving the whites on the side for the meringue.
Beat the egg yolks and mix with the sour cream, raisins, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and sugar.
Cook until thick, stirring constantly so as not to burn.
Pour into pre-baked pie shell.
Mix the 1/3 cup sugar with the 3/4 tsp cornstarch in a small bowl.
Prepare meringue with the 3 egg whites by mixing on high speed while slowly adding the sugar/cornstarch mix until stiff peaks form.
Pour meringue over raisin mix, filling crust to the very edges.
Bake at 400 degrees until slightly browned.
