Ingredients

1 (14.1 oz) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed
5 cups Concord grapes
1 ¼ cups white sugar
0 quarter cup all-purpose flour
a pinch of salt
¾ tsp lemon juice
1 ½ tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and place a sheet pan on the lower oven rack.

2

Wash and stem the grapes; squeeze grape pulp out of the skins into a large saucepan. Place skins in a separate large bowl.

3

Mash a few grapes in the saucepan to release their juices. Heat over medium-low heat until it boils fully.

4

Pass the hot pulp mixture through a food mill or sieve to remove seeds. Combine pulp with skins and add lemon juice.

5

Mix sugar, flour, salt together in a bowl. Stir into grape mixture and pour into the bottom pastry. Dot with butter and cover with the second pastry.

6

Flute the edges and make little slits on the top crust for steam to escape.

7

Place the pie on the baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and juice starts bubbling through the slits, 45 to 50 minutes.

8

Let it cool completely before serving.
