Ingredients
  

  • For the Crust:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup ice water
  • For the Raspberry Filling:
  • 6 cups fresh raspberries
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • For the Almond Streusel Topping:
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Instructions
 

  • Make the Pie Crust: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Prepare the Raspberry Filling: In a large bowl, gently combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and almond extract. Make sure the berries are evenly coated.
  • Make the Almond Streusel Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the sliced almonds and almond extract.
  • Assemble the Pie: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crust to a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the crust to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  • Fill and Top the Pie: Pour the raspberry filling into the prepared pie crust. Sprinkle the almond streusel topping evenly over the filling.
  • Bake the Pie: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the streusel topping starts to brown too quickly, cover the pie loosely with foil.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
