Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
• 4 cups fresh gooseberries
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups white sugar

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C.)

Step 2

Roll out 1 crust on a floured work surface to fit a 9-inch pie plate; place into the pie plate. Roll out remaining crust and set aside.

Step 3

Mix together sugar and flour in a medium bowl until well combined.

Step 4

Place 2 cups gooseberries in the prepared pie plate and sprinkle with 1/2 of the sugar-flour mixture. Top with remaining 2 cups gooseberries, then sprinkle with remaining sugar-flour mixture. Dot with butter. Cover with top crust; seal and flute the edges. Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Cover the edges of pie with aluminum foil if over-browning occurs; remove the foil for the final 15 minutes of baking. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
