ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups sugar
3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
2 cups unsweetened raspberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup tart cherries, pitted (frozen or canned)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pastry
3 cups flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 ¹⁄₂ teaspoons salt
¹⁄₂ teaspoon baking powder
1 cup shortening
1 egg
5 -6 tablespoons cold water
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon butter

directions

For filling, in a bowl, combine sugar and tapioca. Add the raspberries, cherries (drained) and lemon juice; toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder; cut in shortening until crumbly. Combine the egg, water and vinegar. Gradually add to flour mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball.
Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Place pastry in plate, trim even with edge.
Spoon filling into pastry. Dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; make decorative cutouts from scraps, if desired. Place top crust over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges.
Cut slits in pastry. Brush cutouts with water; place on top of pie. Cover edges loosely with foil. Bake at 350 degrees F for 60-70 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool on a wire rack. Store in refrigerator.
