WEST TEXAS GRAPEFRUIT PIE This is a recipe I obtained from an Estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Nicholas Estate in Mabank, Texas in 1984. Ingredients:
4 medium grapefruit |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1-3/4 cup strained grapefruit juice |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
3 ounce box strawberry gelatin |
9 inch pie crust baked |
1 cup whipping cream whipped |
Directions:
1. Peel grapefruit then separate sections and remove from membranes.
2. Place sections in a strainer over a bowl overnight.
3. Cook sugar, juice, cornstarch and salt until thick and clear.
4. Add gelatin and stir until dissolved then brush gelatin mixture over pie crust.
5. Chill gelatin mixture and crust then when gelatin starts to thicken add grapefruit sections.
6. Pour into pie crust and chill until set then top with whipped cream.
