Cherry Pie

Added by Fillylourecipes Source: Betty Crocker's Pie and Pastry Cookbook

Ingredients

  • pastry for a 9 inch pie- see below for 1
  • 1 1/3 cups sugar
  • 1/3 cup flour or equivalent gluten-free
  • 2 1 pound cans canned sour cherries or 4 cups frozen cherries thawed and drained
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Heat oven to 425 degrees or use directions for a gluten-free crust.

Stir together sugar and flour;mix lightly with drained cherries. Turn into pastry lined pie plate. Sprinkle fruit with almond extract and dot with butter. Cover with top crust that has slits in it. A lattice works well, and a streusel top (with only 1 crust recipe for the bottom) works well,too. Cover the edges of the pie with a 2-3 inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent excess browning, removing for the last 15 minutes of baking.

Bake 8-9 inch pies a total of 35 to 45 minutes, more toward the 45. Bake 10-inch pies 40 to 50 minutes. Until nicely browned and juice begins to bubble through slits in the crust.

Ingredients for a 10 inch pie: 1 2/3 cups sugar, 3 pound cans cherries,1 teaspoon almond extract, and 3 tablespoons butter.
