The aroma of this pie baking in my farm kitchen air fryer reminds me of my dear grandma, who made this pretty pie for special occasions.

    • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
    • 1/8 teaspoon salt
    • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1 cup sour cream
    • 1/2 cup 2% milk
    • 3 large egg yolks, room temperature
    • 1/2 cup chopped nuts, optional
    • 1 pie shell (9 inches), baked

    meringue:

    • 3 large egg whites, room temperature
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 6 tablespoons sugarInstructions
      1. In a small saucepan, place raisins and enough water to cover; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat; set aside.
      2. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, salt, cloves and cinnamon. Stir in sour cream and milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly.
      3. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
      4. Drain raisins, reserving 1/2 cup liquid. Gently stir liquid into filling. Add raisins, and nuts if desired. Pour into pie crust.
      5. For meringue, in a small bowl, beat egg whites and salt on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form. Spread over hot filling, sealing edge to crust.
      6. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
