SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Press one of the pie crusts into a 9 inch pie plate. Stir together the cherries, tapioca, sugar, and almond extract in a bowl. Let the mixture stand for 3 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the other pie crust into 1/2 inch strips to make a lattice top. Pour the cherry mixture into the pie shell. Lay the strips across the pie in a lattice pattern, and pinch the edges to seal.
• Bake in the preheated oven 40 to 50 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool before serving.

SOUR-CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place foil on bottom oven rack to catch any juices.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out one disc of dough to 1/8 inch thick. Cut out an 11-inch round, and fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate crust while you prepare the lattice strips.
• On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll out second disc of dough to 1/8 inch thick. Trim to make a 9-by-12-inch rectangle. Using a clean ruler as a guide, cut 16 strips (each 12 inches long and 1/2 inch wide) with a fluted pastry wheel or a sharp knife. Place strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and refrigerate until cold, about 10 minutes.
• Combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Using your fingertips, rub vanilla seeds into sugar mixture. Add cherries, and toss. Pour cherry mixture into prepared pie plate. Dot top with butter. Lightly brush exposed edge of crust with egg.
• Make the lattice: Lay 8 strips of dough across pie. Fold back every other strip. Lay another strip perpendicular in center of pie. Unfold the strips over perpendicular strip. Fold back the strips that are under the perpendicular strip. Lay a second perpendicular strip next to the first. Unfold the strips over the second perpendicular strip. Repeat, weaving strips across half the pie. Return to center, lay a perpendicular strip on unwoven side of pie, and repeat. Trim strips to make a 1-inch overhang. Tuck extra under rim of crust, and crimp to seal. Brush lattice with egg.
• Bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling (if using fresh cherries, begin checking after 1 hour; if using frozen, it will take about 1 hour, 35 minutes). If top begins to brown too quickly, tent with foil and continue to cook.
• Let pie cool slightly on a wire rack. Meanwhile, warm jam in a saucepan over medium heat, then pass through a sieve. Brush warm pie with jam, then let cool.

SOUR CHERRY HAND PIES

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a bowl. Cut butter and shortening into flour mixture with two forks until it resembles small peas. Whisk together 1 egg and 1/3 cup ice water. Gradually stir egg mixture into flour mixture with a fork, just until dough begins to form a ball (add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary).
• Divide dough into 12 balls. Working one piece at a time, on a lightly floured surface, flatten balls and roll into 6-inch circles. Stack circles between layers of parchment, cover with plastic wrap, and chill, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Pulse cherries in a food processor until chopped, 6 to 8 times. Cook cherries (and any accumulated juices), cornstarch, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and remaining 1/4 tea- spoon salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in almond extract. Cool completely.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
• Let dough rounds stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Beat remaining egg in a bowl. Working with one circle of dough at a time, brush edges with egg and spoon 2 rounded tablespoons cherry mixture into center. Fold dough over filling and press edges with a fork to seal. Place on pre- pared baking sheets. Brush pies with egg and sprinkle with additional sugar. Freeze 20 minutes.
• Bake, rotating pans once, until golden, 22 to 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack 15 minutes before serving.

CLASSIC SOUR CHERRY PIE WITH LATTICE CRUST

Steps:

• For crust:
• Whisk flour, sugar, and salt in large bowl to blend. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until small pea-size clumps form. Add 5 tablespoons ice water; mix lightly with fork until dough holds together when small pieces are pressed between fingertips, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Gather dough together; divide into 2 pieces. Form each piece into ball, then flatten into disk and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes. Do ahead Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled. Let dough soften slightly before rolling out.
• For filling:
• Position rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 425°F. Whisk 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Stir in cherries, lemon juice, and vanilla; set aside.
• Roll out 1 dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch glass pie dish. Trim dough overhang to 1/2 inch. Roll out second dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Using large knife or pastry wheel with fluted edge, cut ten 3/4-inch-wide strips from dough round. Transfer filling to dough-lined dish, mounding slightly in center. Dot with butter. Arrange dough strips atop filling, forming lattice; trim dough strip overhang to 1/2 inch. Fold bottom crust up over ends of strips and crimp edges to seal. Brush lattice crust (not edges) with milk. Sprinkle lattice with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Place pie on rimmed baking sheet and bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Bake pie until filling is bubbling and crust is golden brown, covering edges with foil collar if browning too quickly, about 1 hour longer. Transfer pie to rack and cool completely.

SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Mix cherries with sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon and tapioca.
• Might look kind of funny, but that is ok.
• Pour into unbaked pie crust.
• Dot with butter.
• Bake at 375 for 35 minutes.

CHERRY PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Roll out the dough: Take one disc of dough out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for a few minutes to soften slightly for easy rolling. On a floured surface, roll the dough out into a 12-inch circle. Place the dough gently into a 9-inch pie pan; you can do this by flouring a rolling pin and rolling the dough loosely around it, then unrolling it into the pan. Brush away any excess flour on the surface. With a sharp knife, trim the edges of the pastry to fit the pie pan. Cover pan with plastic wrap and place in the fridge. Roll out the other disc in the same fashion, then transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge.
• Make the cherry filling: In a medium bowl, mix together sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Stir in cherries. Add lemon juice and zest, vanilla extract, and Kirsch and mix to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425F/220C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place in the lower third of the oven.
• Spread cherry filling in an even layer onto pie crust, and dot with butter on top. If you choose to make a lattice pie, this is how you do it. Otherwise, place the second crust over the filling. Tuck any excess overhang pastry under the bottom crust, then crimp the edges using your fingers or a fork. Make 4 slits in the center to let steam escape while baking. Brush the crust with a thin coating of milk or cream, then sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375F/190C and continue baking until the crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling through the slits, about 40-50 minutes longer. Cover the edges of the pie loosely with foil if it starts browning too much while baking.
• Allow pie to cool for at least 4 hours before serving so that the filling can set. Store pie in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

SOUR CREAM CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Arrange cherries evenly in the pastry shell. Dot with butter. In a large bowl, combine 1-3/4 cups sugar, flour and salt. Stir in the eggs, sour cream and lemon juice. Spread evenly over cherries. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. , Bake at 400° for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°; bake 30 minutes longer or until topping is set. Cool for 1 hour on a wire rack. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours before cutting. Refrigerate leftovers.

FRESH SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• How to make the pie crust(pâte brisée or shortcrust pastry):
• In a food processor: Mix flour with salt and place in the food processor. Add cold butter cut into small cubes and pulse few times until you obtain a mixture that resembles sand or bread crumbs. Do not overmix. Add water, one tablespoon at a time until mixture holds together.
• By hand: Mix flour and salt together, then cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour. Use a pastry tool to incorporate the butter into the flour, or use your fingertips. You should have a mixture that resembles sand or bread crumbs. Add water, one tablespoon at a time until mixture holds together.
• Divide dough into two parts, then shape each half into a disk. Wrap each half in plastic foil and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour or up to 1 day. (You can skip this part if you are in a hurry)
• How to make the sour(tart)cherry filling:
• Mix sugar, salt, flour(or corn starch) together. Set aside.If you use frozen sour cherries make sure to drain and thaw the fruit.
• If you use fresh cherries, wash and pit them.
• In a large bowl, place the sour cherries and add the mixture of sugar with flour. Mix everything together.
• How to assemble the pie:
• Preheat oven to 375F.
• Roll out one piece of dough on floured board to a 12 inch size. This will fit in a 9 inch pan. Trim away excess and use it for decorating the pie.
• Add the cherry mixture. Top the filling with little pieces of butter. Place the pie in the fridge while you work on the top of the pie.
• Roll out the other dough disk to a 9-10 inch size. Using a cookie cutter or a pastry tip make few holes in the pastry using the shapes you like.(I use the leftover dough to make leaves and decorate the edges of the pie)
• Take the pie out of the fridge and cover it with the top. Press together both layers of crust to seal around edges. Fold edges under and crimp as desired or decorate with leftover dough.
• Brush crust with egg wash. Bake in the oven for 1 1/2 hour or until the pie is golden brown on top and bubbling. You might need to put some foil underneath the pie dish to avoid cleaning the oven, as the juices of the pie might come out during baking.
• Allow it to cool on a rack and serve it cool.

MY SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Line 9" pie plate with one unbaked pie crust. Place in refrigerator while preparing filling.
• Combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt in large bowl. Add cherries and spinkle vanilla over the top. Toss cherries and sugar mixture until fruit in well-coated. Pour cherrry mixture into prepared pie crust. Top cherries with bits of butter.
• Place second unbaked pie crust on top of cherries, seal, trim, and flute edges. Brush entire crust with beaten egg.
• Bake 1 hour and 30 minutes, Cover pie crust loosely with foil if begins to brown excessively. Remove from oven onto to rack to cool. Melt orange marmalade over low heat. Brush warm pie with melted marmalade and cool completely.

SOUR CHERRY PIE FILLING

Steps:

• Place pitted cherries in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
• Add the honey and mix.
• In a small bowl, combine the cherry juice and cornstarch. Mix till smooth.
• When the cherries are heated to almost boiling and breaking down, add the cornstarch slurry and mix until thickened.
• Taste for sweetness. If the filling is still too tart, then add honey by the tbsp until you reach the desired sweetness.

THE BEST TART CHERRY PIE YOU'LL EVER EAT

Steps:

• Make the pie dough and shape the crust in a pie pan ahead of time, then store covered in the fridge. You can follow my recipe for an all butter flaky pie crust, use your favorite recipe, or a store-bought crust.
• To make the tart cherry pie filling: add frozen tart cherries, sugar, cornstarch, flour and almond extract to a large pot and place over medium heat. After 5 minutes or so, the cherries will thaw, begin to break down and the sugar will melt. Stir frequently during this time. Add in butter and amaretto and continue to stir. After another 5-10 or so minutes, the mixture will begin to thicken and start to bubble along the edges. Once the filling begins to stick slightly to the back of your spoon, remove it from the heat and set aside to cool off.
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• While your oven preheats, make the dutch crumble topping: in a medium bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar and oats. Add in the melted butter and stir together with a fork until it begins to form into crumbles and resembles clumpy wet sand. You may need to use your hands/fingers to form into nice crumbles. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 5 minutes or until ready to use.
• Remove pie pan with pie crust from the refrigerator and place pie pan onto a large baking sheet. I do this to avoid any spillage that may happen as the pie filling bubbles and bakes. Pour cooled tart cherry pie filling into the crust, then top filling with the dutch crumble topping.
• Bake for 1 hour-1 hour 15 minutes or until the filling is very bubbly and the crumble is slightly golden brown. Check pie after 30 minutes to make sure the crust isn't burning. If it is getting too golden brown, simply cover pie edges with foil or pie shield.
• Allow pie to cool on a wire rack until completely cooled before cutting into it (this is annoying, but if you cut into it before then the pie filling won't be set). The longer the pie rests, the easier it is to serve! Can be made a few days ahead of time. Pie is best served at room temp or just slightly warm. Serves 9. Great with vanilla bean ice cream. Enjoy!

SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
• Open the cans of cherries and drain them, reserving the juice from one can. You'll need 1/2 cup of liquid.
• Pour the liquid, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and salt into a 2-quart saucepan and set over medium heat. Whisk constantly over the heat until the mixture is boiling and has thickened. This will take a few minutes, so be patient. You'll know the mixture is thickening when globs suddenly appear in the mixture.
• Remove from the heat and whisk in the almond extract and butter until smooth and well blended. Gently fold in the drained cherries with a flexible spatula, then set aside to cool.
• Roll the chilled pastry on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8 inch thick. Use it to line a 9-inch metal pie plate, then trim off the excess pastry with a knife. Gently spread the cooled cherry filling in the pastry.
• Wad up the remaining pastry and re-roll it to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into strips, using a ruler for straight lines. Lay several of the strips horizontally across the top, then weave the remaining strips under and over the other ones to create a lattice top. Cut off the excess pastry, crimp the crust, and brush the pastry with beaten egg. Sprinkle liberally with demerara sugar if desired.
• Bake at 400 F for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375 F and bake for another 20 minutes. The crust should brown beautifully and the filling should bubble gently.
• Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 3-4 hours on a wire cooling rack to allow the filling to cool and set. Cutting it too soon will make the filling runny.
• Serve with vanilla ice cream.

SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 disk of dough to a 13-inch round, 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate, and trim dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang; refrigerate or freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• On lightly floured parchment, roll out second disk of dough 1/8 inch thick. Using a clean ruler as a guide, cut 14 strips (about 1/2 inch wide) with a pastry wheel or sharp knife. Place strips (and parchment) on a baking sheet, and refrigerate until firm, 10 minutes.
• Combine granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Add cherries and vanilla, and toss. Pour cherry mixture into pie plate. Dot with butter. Lightly brush exposed edge of shell with beaten egg.
• Weave the lattice (see page 328): Lay 7 strips of dough across pie. Fold back every other strip. Lay another strip perpendicular in center of pie. Unfold strips over perpendicular strip. Fold back strips under perpendicular strip. Lay second perpendicular strip next to first. Unfold strips over second perpendicular strip. Repeat, weaving strips across half the pie. Return to center, lay a perpendicular strip on unwoven side of pie, and repeat. Trim strips to 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under edge of shell, and crimp to seal. Brush lattice with egg wash, and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Refrigerate or freeze 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Transfer pie plate to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling; if using fresh cherries, begin checking after 1 hour; if using frozen, about 95 minutes. (If top browns too quickly, tent with foil.)
• Transfer pie to a wire rack; let cool completely. Pie can be kept at room temperature, tented with foil, up to 1 day.

BUBBY'S SOUR CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the cherries, sugar, tapioca, butter, lemon juice, almond extract and salt. Transfer 2 rounds of pie dough to two 9-inch pie tins.
