Perfect Cherry Pie

Recipe #247792 | 35 min | SERVES 8 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Nikki Kate

It deserves its name-try it and see! I just started making pies for my poor DH who has lived without them the last 10 years! I just couldn't make a pie crust, but found No-Fail Pie Crust to be a lifesaver!!

Posted on: Aug 21, 2007

Ingredients

  • 1 pastry for double-crust pie
  • cups frozen pitted tart cherries
  • cup tart cherry juice
  • tablespoons sugar
  • tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
  • 1 2/3 tablespoons cornstarch (5 tsp)
  • 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Thaw cherries until most of the free ice has disappeared. Drain off the juice; measure and stir it into mixture of sugar, tapioca and cornstarch in saucepan. Heat rapidly until thickening is complete. Boiling is not necessary. Set aside to cool.
    2. 2
      Add cherries and extract to cooled, thickened juice. Pour filling into pastry-lined 9” pie pan. Cut vents and adjust top crust; flute edges.
    3. 3
      Bake in hot oven 425ºF for 30 to 35 minutes, or until nicely browned. For a brown undercrust, bake on lowest oven shelf.
