Raisins steeped in dark rum mingle with tart and sweet apples in this updated version of an American favorite. It's a showstopper when paired with lightly sweetened whipped cream.

Cooks' Note

•To achieve an ideal balance of tart and sweet apples, we used 2 Golden Delicious or Gala, 2 Winesap or Granny Smith, and 2 McIntosh or Northern Spy (you'll need 6 apples total).
•Raisins can be soaked in rum 1 day ahead, cooled completely, and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
•Pie can be made 8 hours ahead and kept, uncovered, at room temperature.
