CHERRY PIE

All good things come to those who wait! 😉

CLASSIC TART CHERRY LATTICE PIE

1 Double pie crust of your choice ( see below)

5 cups whole pitted tart red cherries, canned or frozen, drain the canned ones.
1 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 Tablespoons cornstarch
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/4 inch cubes.
1 Tablespon milk
Vanilla Ice Cream for serving

Preheat oven to 375. In a bowl, add the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon juice and vanilla. Stir till most of the sugar is dissolved, or let set for a minute, then stir.
Fit the bottom crust into a 9 inch pie plate. Add the cherry mixture. Dot with butter.

With the remaining crust, cut into 10 strips. Arrange dough strips, forming a Lattice pattern. Trim overhang and tuck ends under edge of bottom crust and crimp edges. Brush with milk, using a pastry brush. Sprinkle with granulated sugar. Transfer pie to a rimmed baking sheet and bake till pie is bubbling and crust is golden. About 1 hour. Add a edge protector, if desired, half way through the baking time to keep the edges from over browning.

Transfer pie to a cooling rack and let cool till room temp. Slice and serve with ice cream.

MY FLAKY and TENDER PIE CRUST

2 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup solid shortening
10 Tablespoons very cold unsalted butter, grated
7-10 Tablespoons of ice water

Whisk together the flour and salt. Add the very come grated butter and solid shortening; cut in with a pastry blender or fork. Don’t overwork it; it’s ok to have some butter chunks. Add 4 Tablespoons of water at a time; sprinkle over the flour mixture. Keep adding water till you get a fairly cohesive mixture. It should hold together when you squeeze it in your hand. Divide dough in half and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill for 30 minutes. Remove dough from fridge and let set for a few minutes. When it’s read to roll, it will be soft, but cold. Roll out on a lightly floured surface. This makes a double crust. Use as desired. Follow your pie recipe for baking instructions. Freezes for up to 3 months.
