Fruit Cocktail Pie I
Fruit Cocktail Pie I
I found this recipe while looking for recipes that use fruit cocktail as an ingredient, and this does sound not only good, but easy as well.
Ingredients
- 2 cans fruit cocktail, (15 oz / 425 g cans)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 2 pie crusts, (for top and bottom)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180 C (350 F). Line a pie dish with one pie crust, store bought or homemade, your choice.
- Add the sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon to a medium size saucepan and whisk together.
- Open the cans of fruit cocktail and drain the syrup into the saucepan. Set the cans aside. Place the saucepan on medium heat, stir and cook until thickened. Remove from heat.
- Stir the fruit from the cans into the syrup.
- Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared pie dish.
- Cover the pie with the second pastry and crimp or flute the edge as desired. Cut several slits for steam to escape, and brush the top with beaten egg.
- Bake the pie for 50 minutes or until the crust is nicely browned. Remove from the oven and let cool before serving.
- Slice, serve, and enjoy.
Notes
Low cost per serving.
