Apple pie with raisins is a cozy and aromatic dessert found in European cuisine. Its roots trace back to home baking when housewives used simple and accessible ingredients to create hearty treats. Soft dough soaked in butter, delicate sour cream filling, and juicy apples combined with sweet raisins create a harmony of flavors. The tartness of lemon juice adds freshness, while the light caramelization of apples in the oven makes the pie especially appetizing. This pie is perfect for family tea times, cozy evenings, and festive gatherings. It can be served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or chilled with a cup of aromatic coffee.
