Summer Fruit Pie
1 pkg. cube flavored gelatin
1/2 cup fruit juice
1 cup hot water
2 cups fruit
Sugar
Baked pastry shell
Any fruit may be used, such as strawberries or raspberries, peaches or apricots. For strawberry or raspberry pie, use strawberry or raspberry flavored gelatin; for peach or apricot pie, use lemon or orange flavored gelatin.
Sprinkle sugar on fruit which has been sliced and let stand for about an hour. Drain off liquid, which will be about 1/2 cup. Dissolve gelatin in the 1 cup of hot water, add the 1/2 cup juice. When starting to set, fold in fruit, and when mixture is beginning to congeal, pour into pre-baked pastry shell. Serve with whipped cream.
