Studded with fresh raspberries, this pie is a show-stopper of a dessert! Fabulous for serving for your Easter dinner or brunch, it’s also fantastic for a cookout, potluck or any spring or summer get-together. Cool, creamy desserts always hit the spot!
Raspberry Jam
Since this recipe is has raspberry preserves, it is important to use a quality product that tastes perfect all on its own too. This will make sure that the end result will be just what you were looking for.
Here is one of my favorite raspberry preserves – give it a try. The jar is the perfect size for the recipe.
Pie Crust Choices
I made this raspberry chiffon pie in a traditional pie crust today. Here is my recipe for a pie crust that is a no-fail and flaky crust. However, this can also be made using a graham cracker pie crust. If you would like to try this pie with the graham cracker pie crust, here is the recipe for that.
Family Favorite Pie
As you can see from this picture, I made three pies. They were for a bake sale and every piece of pie was gone early in the sale. I did have to make one for my family and I did not get any of it. They gobbled it up quickly.
This raspberry chiffon pie has a wonderful light and creamy texture with a fresh berry flavor.
Topping on a Cake
I have not tried this, but I think that this would be good layered on top of a vanilla or raspberry cake. It would also be a good filling in a layered cake. Be creative and see what ideas you have for using this luscious raspberry chiffon.
Simple Ingredients for a Raspberry Chiffon Pie
This is the perfect spring and summer dessert! Made with an incredible creamy raspberry filling.
Pie Crust. This is the only baking you will do for this recipe. The crust is baked and while it is cooling, you can save time and work on the filling while it is cooling.
Raspberry Preserves. This is an important element in this pie. I have tried a few to figure out which brand our family likes the best. Go for good quality here.
Heavy Whipping Cream. I use real heavy whipping cream for this recipe; however, if you prefer, you could substitute this for whipped topping.
Cream Cheese. Cream cheese just adds the right amount of thick creaminess and tang to this recipe.
Vanilla Extract. Just a little goes a long way.
Fresh Raspberries. This is for the decorations on top and it ads to the fresh raspberry taste in the pie.
Dream Fruit Dessert
I have heard this type of dessert referred to as a dream dessert because of the creaminess of the pie. Any pie that combines a cream with fruit always seems to taste so fresh and delicious.
If I can get raspberries from our neighbor when they are in season, they seem to have the best flavor. Whenever you can get fruit in season it just seems to be the juiciest and tastiest too.
