It was a wonderful snowy weekend here perfect for baking.I was in the local shop the other day with our oldest granddaughter and we saw a pie mold for Pie Fries. I thought, “do I really need a mold for that?” The answer is below! Smile
What You Need
- I Pre-made refrigerator pie crust ( or if you are feeling ambitious your favorite pie crust dough) I used Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust
- 4 cups fresh raspberries
- 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 1/3 cup cornstarch
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp. warm water
- Flour (for dusting rolling pin and counter)
- 1/4 Cup confectioners sugar ( for topping)
- Whipped topping ( for dipping) yes that is an egg cup filled with whipped cream in the photo:-)
- Rolling pin
- Baking sheet
- Mixing Bowl
- Small bowl
- Parchment paper
- Piping bag
- Basting brush
- Baking sheet
- Saucepan
Before You Start : in a small bowl combine egg and water and beat lightly with a fork. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 375°. Dust a clean surface with flour.
Lets Make It: In a saucepan combine raspberries, lemon juice, water, cornstarch, sugar and cook over medium high heat , stirring frequently until the fruit breaks down and it reaches your desired consistency. Remove from heat and let cool (about 20 minutes). Fill your piping bag with 3/4’s of the cooled raspberry filling and set aside.
Using a floured rolling pin, roll out the pie dough to form a thin square about 1/8 inch thick.. Cut narrow strips of the dough about 2 1/2 inches wide and 4 inches long. Using the piping bag pipe a full line of raspberry filling down one side of the dough. Roll filled dough strip onto itself, raspberry side towards the dough side (like a thin jelly roll). Place on prepared baking sheet seam side down about 1 1/2 inches apart, lightly pinch ends. Repeat until you have used all of the dough. Using a basting brush lightly baste the tops of the pie fries with the remaining raspberry filling. Bake for 8-12 minutes turning once half way through (until golden brown). Let cool on parchment paper. Serve warm with whipped topping, sprinkled with confectioners sugar , or both Use any remaining raspberry filling for dipping.
Makes about 12-16

My wife would love those. Her favorite berry is the raspberry.
Raspberries and strawberries tie for me, yum! Perhaps you could make her this little treat my friend. Hugs!
These look Fantastic.
I bet a person could use almost any kind of fruit for these.
Thinking about blueberry, strawberry, etc. (hubby doesn’t like blueberry) so will have them all to myself. :}
I canned up some caramel apple butter along with some homemade jams. Wonder how that would work.
I’m willing to try anything for a fruit flavored fries.
Thanks for the recipe.

I think any filling would be terrific. If you can put it in a pie you can certainly put it in pie fries xo
