Tips for baking with raspberries
This recipe works best with fresh raspberries. They hold their shape better than frozen, and impart less moisture.
You will need 2 cups of fresh raspberries, which is about two thirds of a 12-oz container.
After washing your fresh raspberries be sure to dry them well so that you don’t add additional liquid to the filling.
Since fresh raspberries can be quite tart, the addition of raspberry jam helps to add a sweet raspberry flavor to the filling.
