APPLE OR CHERRY PIE DESSERT PIZZA

Apple or Cherry Pie Dessert Pizza image

I love Apple, Cherry or Peach Dessert Pizza and it's so easy to make! My husband prefers cherry over apple so it's always a toss up or we do half and half. Buying store bought pizza is a convenient and fast way than making your own dough. Picture courtesy of toupie.org.

Time 7h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 (20 ounce) can pitted sour cherries
¼ cup white sugar
1 envelope (1 tablespoon) unflavored gelatin
2 pasteurized egg yolks
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon almond extract
¼ teaspoon red food coloring
2 pasteurized egg whites
¼ cup white sugar
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
1 (9 inch) graham cracker crust

Steps:

Let cherries sit in juice with 1/4 cup sugar for 2 hours. Drain cherries, reserving juice; pour juice in a small saucepan.
Soften gelatin in the cherry juice for 5 minutes. Mix in egg yolks and salt. Cook on low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in almond extract, red food color, and cherries. Chill until room temperature, but not set.
In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. (Pasteurized egg whites take a while to whip; be patient.) Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold into cherry mixture. Fold in whipped cream until no streaks remain. Pour into graham cracker crust. Chill several hours or overnight before serving.

Tips:

Use fresh or frozen cherries: Fresh cherries are best, but frozen cherries can also be used. If using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
Pit the cherries: Use a cherry pitter to remove the pits from the cherries.
Make sure the cherry filling is thick: The cherry filling should be thick enough to hold its shape. If the filling is too thin, add more cornstarch or tapioca starch.
Use a deep-dish pie plate: A deep-dish pie plate will prevent the cherry filling from overflowing.
Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown: The pie is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the cherry filling is bubbling.

Conclusion:

Cherry pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious cherry pie that will be the star of your next party or gathering.
