I have also used rhubarb recipes and substituted fresh goosberries for the rhubarb.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh gooseberries or two 16 oz. cans gooseberries
  • 2/3 to 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • dash of salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine

Directions

Stem and wash fresh gooseberries or drain canned berries. Combine sugar, flour, and salt. Add sugar mixture to berries; toss gently to coat fruit. Fill a pastry-lined 9-inch pie plate with berry mixture; dot with butter or margarine. Adjust top crust. Seal and flute edge. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 25 minutes longer or till golden. Cool on a wire rack. Makes 8 servings.

Note: If using canned gooseberries, reduce the all-purpose flour to 3 tablespoons.
