Fresh Cherry Pie - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 pastry for double-crust pie (unbaked)
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/3 cup flour (either kind)
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 drops almond extract (optional)
4 cups pitted tart cherries
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
Preparation
-
Combine sugar,flour and salt.
Add almond extract to cherries and toss with sugar flour mixture to mix well.
Pour into pastry lined 9 inch pie pan.
Put on top crust.
Bake at 400 for about 40 minutes.
If edges brown too much cover it with aluminum foil.
The syrup does bubble and may spill over a little so I set the pie on a cookie sheet then baked it.
