16+ Easter Pie Recipe Martha Stewart Delight In These Amazing Recipes!

Ingredients

Pie Crust

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water

Filling

• 1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chopped almonds
• 1/2 cup chopped candied cherries
• 1/2 cup chopped candied citron
• 1/2 cup chopped candied orange peel
• 1/4 cup dark rum

Instructions

1. In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and sugar until combined. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
2. With the machine running, add the ice water in a slow, steady stream until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
3. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
5. Roll out one disk of dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish and trim the edges. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
6. In a large bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
7. In a separate bowl, mix together the chopped almonds, candied cherries, citron, and orange peel. Add the rum and stir to combine.
8. Spread the nut and fruit mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust. Pour the ricotta mixture over the top.
9. Roll out the second disk of dough and place it over the top of the pie. Trim the edges and crimp to seal. Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
10. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover it with foil.
11. Let the pie cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
