Fresh Orange Pie image

I love the fresh strawberry and blue berry pies, in which the fresh fruit is enfolded in a glistening glaze. Would any other fruit work in this same way, I wondered. Then I found not one, but two, such pies with unusual fruit. One is a fresh pineapple pie (posted) and the other is this one in which fresh orange segments rest in a luscious glaze and just invite you to give it a try.

Time 50m

Yield 1 pie, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pastry dough, for a 1-crust pie
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
9 large navel oranges
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup apricot jam
1/2 cup toasted coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare dough for a 1-crust pie, adding grated orange zest. Line pie plate with pastry. Prick pastry with fork to prevent puffing during baking. Bake in preheated oven until golden, about 12 minutes; cool.
  • Meanwhile, peel oranges and section into segments. Squeeze membrane and reserve juice; you should have about 1 cup. Pour sugar over segments and let stand 1 hour. Drain liquid from segments, add to reserved juice to make 1-1/2 cups (add extra juice if necessary).
  • Place juice in a double boiler with salt and cornstarch. Cook until thickened. Add vanilla. Cool to room temperature.
  • Spread apricot jam on baked pie shell. Add orange segments, spreading over jam. Pour cooled sauce over orange segments. Chill at least 1 hour before serving.
  • To serve: garnish with toasted coconut.

I would make this pie again, but I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling.
