Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 cups pitted tart red cherries
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup cornstarch

  • In a bowl, whisk the sugar with cornstarch until smooth; pour the mixture into the hot cherries and juice, and thoroughly combine. Return to low heat, bring to a simmer, and cook until the filling has thickened, about 2 minutes; remove from heat, let cool, and use as pie filling.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries. Fresh cherries will give your kislings the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Don't overcook the cherries. The cherries should be cooked until they are soft, but not mushy. If you overcook the cherries, they will lose their flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality vanilla extract. Vanilla extract is an important flavoring in kislings. Use a good quality vanilla extract to get the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the kislings tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the kislings at the right temperature. The kislings should be baked at a moderate temperature so that they can cook through without burning.
  • Let the kislings cool completely before serving. The kislings will be easier to handle and will taste better if you let them cool completely before serving.

Conclusion:

Cherry kislings are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Follow these tips for making the best cherry kislings: use fresh cherries, don't overcook the cherries, use a good quality vanilla extract, don't overmix the batter, bake the kislings at the right temperature, and let the kislings cool completely before serving.
