Easy Cherry Pie
11 ingredients
12 steps
Ingredients
- 1 recipe for double crust pie dough
- 6 cups sour cherries, fresh and pitted, canned and drained, or frozen (you won't need to defrost them)
- 1 cup sugar + a few teaspoons more for sprinkling the top
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- A very small grating of whole nutmeg
- 2-3 tablespoons quick cooking tapioca (if you are brave, just use a good size handful)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons orange liqueur (optional)
- 1 tablespoon butter for dotting the top of the filling (if you forget this, it's fine...really!)
- Egg White Wash
- 1 egg white mixed with 1 tablespoon water for an egg white was
Directions
-
1Make dough, divide into two disks, wrap in plastic and chill.
-
2Put cherries, sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg, quick cooking tapioca, salt into a bowl and gently mix together until well coated.
-
3Roll out the bottom dough and place in your pie pan.
-
4Pour filling into crust. (Note: Cherries are a very juicy fruit so fill your pie pan to within 1/2 inch of the rim so they won't boil over when baking.)
-
5Dot with butter and set aside.
-
6Roll out remaining dough and lay over the fruit, or cut strips and make a lattice top.
-
7Trim excess dough from edges and crimp.
-
8Brush crust with some egg white wash and sprinkle evenly and lightly with 1-2 teaspoons of sugar.
-
9Place pie in refrigerator to chill while oven is preheating to 425° F.
-
10Bake at 425° F on the middle rack of the oven until crust is just golden, about 20 minutes.
-
11Reduce heat to 375° F; bake until golden brown and there is some steady bubbling in the filling, about 30-35 minutes more.
-
12Let cool before serving.
