Five-Fruit Pie Recipe
  • Prep: 40 min. Bake: 45 min. + cooling
  • Yield: 8 Servings
40 45 85

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
  • 1 cup chopped peeled tart apples
  • 1 cup chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb
  • 1 cup each fresh or frozen raspberries, blueberries and sliced strawberries
  • CRUST:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 2 teaspoons white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons half-and-half cream
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sugar

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, tapioca and fruit; let stand for 15 minutes. In another bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine the egg, water and vinegar; stir into flour mixture just until moistened.
  • Divide dough in half so that one portion is slightly larger than the other. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger portion to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Transfer pastry to pie plate; trim pastry even with edge. Spoon fruit mixture into crust.
  • Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; make a lattice crust. Trim, seal and flute edges. Brush with cream; sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  • Bake at 375° for 45-55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool completely on a wire rack. Yield: 8 servings.

    Editor’s Note: If using frozen fruit, measure fruit while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.

I have made this multiple time and every time I get requests for the recipe. Sometimes I subsitute 1 cup of baking Splenda along with 1/2 cup sugar to replace the 1 1/2 cups sugar to lighten it up a little.

Probably the best fruit pie I have ever eaten. I have 10 inch pottery pie pans, so the first time I made this I thought it was a little shallow, so I increased the amount of each fruit by 1/4 cup. Also increased the sugar by 1/4 cup. Perfect. For a regular pie pan, the 1 cup each would be fine. I have made this 3 times & everyone who has tasted it said it was wonderful.

This was perfect---just like Fruits of the Forest Pie I have bought frozen at the grocery store in the past---only better. I used blackberries in place of the blueberries and it was delicious!

Exceptional flavor down to the last crumb. Those who have shared it thought it was the best ever! Always a hit with a request to make it again. I've done so several times. The crust far exceeded my traditional recipe.

I made two of these for my dad's birthday. There was a huge cake, but everyone fought over this pie--it's just wonderful!
