Instructions:

1. Prepare Pie Crust:

   • Line a 9-inch pie plate with the bottom pastry.
   • Store it in the refrigerator along with the top crust until ready to use.

2. Prepare Raisins:

   • Wash the seedless raisins, soak them for about 10 minutes, then drain them thoroughly.
   • Mix the raisins with 1 tablespoon of flour to separate them evenly.

3. Create Filling:

   • In a mixing bowl, cream the butter until smooth.
   • Add in the brown sugar, salt, and well-beaten eggs.
   • Incorporate the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour and beat until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

4. Add Nuts and Sweetness:

   • Stir in the walnuts gradually, adding a few at a time for even distribution.
   • Slowly pour in the maple syrup, allowing it to blend into the mixture.
   • Sprinkle in the nutmeg, giving the filling a warm, aromatic flavor.

5. Assemble the Pie:

   • Spread the raisins evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
   • Pour the nut and maple syrup mixture over the raisins, ensuring it covers the filling evenly.

6. Seal and Bake:

   • Place the top crust over the filled pie.
   • Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal or use a fork to create a decorative edge.
   • Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
   • Bake the pie for 10 minutes at this high heat to set the crust.
   • Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue baking for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is beautifully golden brown and the filling is set.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Allow the Maple Raisin Nut Pie to cool slightly before serving.
   • Slice into generous wedges and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
   • Share this delightful treat with loved ones, creating new memories with every delicious bite!
