Let's Make It

Preheat oven to 450°F. Mix raisins and bourbon; set aside. Spread all of the margarine onto bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate. Press pecans, top sides down, in margarine; pat brown sugar evenly over pecans. Divide pastry in half; roll out one half to 10-inch circle on lightly floured surface. Place over brown sugar in pie plate.

Drain raisins; discard liquid. Toss raisins with apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon and salt. Spoon over pie crust in pie plate. Roll out remaining pastry to 10-inch circle. Place over apple mixture; crimp edges of pastry together to seal. Prick top crust with fork to allow steam to vent.

Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F. Bake an additional 45 minutes or until top crust is lightly browned. Cool on wire rack 5 minutes or until filling stops bubbling. Place serving plate over pie; carefully invert pie onto plate. Remove pie plate. Cool completely. Serve topped with whipped topping.
