RAISIN PIE (Funeral Pie) image

My Mother-in-laws recipe, and my Father-in-laws favorite. Often called Funeral pie because it was served at alot of German family funerals. My Mom-in-law never measured when she made pies so I had to watch over her shoulder when she 'measured' and I came up with this. It is a winner!

This raisin pie was a hit at my family gathering! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was sweet and gooey. I added a little bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the filling, which gave it a nice warm flavor.
