CHERRY PIE



Cherry Pie image

Homemade cherry pie is such an easy pie recipe and works great with fresh or canned cherries, so you can enjoy cherry pie all year round!

Provided by Lauren Allen

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups fresh, sour cherries (or three (14.5 oz) cans sour cherries)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
homemade pie crust ((this recipe makes 2 crusts: one for the bottom and one for the top))
1 large egg white (, beaten with a fork)
granulated sugar (, for sprinkling on top)

Steps:

  • Pit and halve the cherries. Add them to a saucepan with sugar and lemon juice and toss to combine. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes until juices are released. Use a slotted spoon to spoon cherries out into a bowl. Spoon some of the sauce into a cup and stir in the cornstarch until smooth. Return to pot with remaining juices and cook for a few minutes until thickened. Pour over cherries and set aside while you prepare the pie crust.
  • Drain the juice from the cans of cherries into a saucepan, reserving 1/3 cup in a small bowl. Set the cherries aside. Add cornstarch to the bowl with the reserved 1/3 cup of juice and stir well to combine.
  • Heat the saucepan (that has the juice in it) over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir well. Bring mixture to a low boil. Stir in dissolved cornstarch mixture. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in butter and lemon juice. Fold in the cherries. Add a few drops of red food coloring, if desired.
  • Allow mixture to cool to room temperature while you prepare the pie crusts.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Set aside a 9'' pie pan. (If using canned cherries, there will be enough filling for a deep dish pie dish).
  • Remove one chilled pie crust dough from the fridge. On a lightly floured counter, roll out your dough to about 12'' in diameter. Gently place in the bottom of pie dish. Spoon the cherry filling into the unbaked crust and sprinkle a little cinnamon over the filling. (If using fresh cherries, add a few small pieces of butter on top).
  • Remove the second pie crust from the fridge and roll it out in a similar manner. Use a pizza cutter, knife or pastry wheel to cut the crust into long strips, about 1/2'' wide. Lay strips over the crust in a lattice pattern. (If you're lazy, like me, you can just lay half of the strips going one direction, and the others on top, going perpendicular, leaving a small space between each.)
  • Pinch the edges of the top and bottom pie crusts together and crimp the edge, if you like. Brush a thin layer of beaten egg white over the top of the pie crust and sprinkle some granulated sugar on top.
  • Bake at 400 degrees F for about 40-45 minutes. Check after about 25 minutes and gently place a piece of tinfoil over the top crust to keep it from getting too brown.
  • Remove to a wire cooling rack and allow to cool for several hours. Once cooled completely you can cut and serve it, or cover it and refrigerate it overnight to serve the next day.
  • Leftover cherry pie will last up to 5 days, stored in the fridge.

CHERRY PIE III



Cherry Pie III image

This is the 1999 American Pie Council's National Pie Championship first-place winner in the Fruit and Berry Category.

Provided by Beth Campbell

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Fruit Pie Recipes     Cherry Pie Recipes

Time 3h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup shortening, chilled
½ cup cold water
1 pinch salt
2 cups pitted sour cherries
1 ¼ cups white sugar
10 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon butter
¼ teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • Cut the shortening into the flour and salt with the whisking blades of a stand mixer until the crumbs are pea-sized. Mix in cold water by hand just until the dough holds together. Divide the dough in half and form it into two disks. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until chilled through, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Roll out one disk of dough into a 11-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie pan with pastry. Refrigerate until needed. Roll out the dough for the top crust, transfer it to a plate or baking sheet, and refrigerate.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a baking tray in the oven to preheat.
  • Place the cherries, sugar, and cornstarch in a medium-sized non-aluminum saucepan. Allow the mixture to stand for 10 minutes, or until the sugar draws out the cherries' juices. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Lower the heat; simmer for 1 minute, or until the juices thicken and become translucent. Remove pan from heat, and stir in butter and almond extract. Allow the filling to cool to lukewarm. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Cover with top crust, crimp the edges to seal, and cut vents for steam.
  • Bake in a preheated 375 degree F (190 degree C) oven on the baking tray for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool for several hours before slicing.

CHERRY PIE



Cherry pie image

Make this classic pie whilst cherries are in season. It's the perfect summer dessert served just warm with plenty of cream or ice cream

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield Serves 8-10

Number Of Ingredients 10

400g plain flour , plus a little for dusting
50g ground almonds , plus 2 tbsp
225g cold butter
75g white caster sugar
2 egg yolks
800g cherries
150g cherry jam
50g caster sugar , plus a little for sprinkling
2½ tbsp cornflour
1 egg white , beaten

Steps:

  • First, make the pastry. Tip the flour, 50g almonds, butter, sugar and ¼ tsp salt into a food processor. Blend until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Beat the egg yolks with 2 tbsp cold water, drizzle over the flour and butter mixture and blend again until the dough starts to clump together. Tip onto a work surface and knead briefly to bring everything together into a smooth dough. Divide into two pieces and shape each lump into a puck shape. Wrap and chill for 30 mins. Will keep, wrapped and chilled, for up to two days.
  • Remove the stones from the cherries - either cut them in half and pop out each stone, or use a cherry stoner. Toss the cherries with the jam, sugar and cornflour until there are no floury patches.
  • If the pastry has been chilled for longer than 30 mins, bring it out of the fridge 20 mins or so before rolling, as it will be very firm. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Dust a surface with a little flour, then unwrap one piece of pastry. Carefully roll it out until it's large enough to line the base and sides of a 25cm pie dish, skillet pan or cake tin. The pastry will be very delicate, if any cracks appear when rolling, squash them back together and keep going. Lift the pastry over the rolling pin and into the dish - don't worry if it breaks, just patch it up by pushing it into the corners and up the sides and closing any holes. There should be a little overhang around the edges. Sprinkle the reserved 2 tbsp almonds over the base, then spread the cherries on top to fill the pie in an even layer.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry so it's large enough to cover the pie. Brush a little beaten egg white around the pastry edge. Top the pie with the pastry lid as it is (piercing a hole in the centre for the steam to escape), or make a lattice topping. To do this, cut the pastry into strips, however wide you like. Arrange half the strips in one direction over the pie, leaving a few centimetres gap between each. Weave the remaining strips under and over these in the opposite direction, creating a lattice pattern. Squash the pastry together around the edge, then trim the excess with a sharp knife.
  • Crimp the edge for a neat finish, or use any pastry scraps to make shapes to run around the edge - we used a piping nozzle to cut small circles. Stick them on with a little more egg wash, then brush the whole pie with a thin layer of egg wash. Sprinkle over a little caster sugar. Bake for 55 mins-1 hr, checking the pie after 40 mins. The edges may brown more quickly than the centre, if this happens, wrap a little kitchen foil around the edge to protect it.
  • Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 1 hr. If you cut it too soon, the fruit juice will be very runny and flood the pie. Best served just warm with cream or ice cream.

Tips:

  • To easily pit cherries, use a cherry pitter. If you don't have one, you can use a sharp knife to cut around the pit and then pop it out.
  • If you don't like the taste of tart cherries, you can use a mix of tart and sweet cherries.
  • To make the filling thicker, add a tablespoon or two of cornstarch to the cherry mixture before cooking.
  • If you don't have a pie crust mix, you can make your own using all-purpose flour, salt, and butter.
  • To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, brush it with an egg wash before baking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool for at least an hour before serving.

Conclusion:

Cherry pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give cherry pie a try. You won't be disappointed.
