Hereβs TheΒ Cherry Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
For the crust:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter (chilled and cut into small cubes)
1/4 cup sugar
6-8 tbsp ice water
For the filling:
4 cups fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp almond extract (optional)
Pinch of salt
1 tbsp unsalted butter (for dotting on top)
Directions:
Make the crust:
In a large bowl, mix flour and sugar. Add cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
Split dough in half, form into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Make the filling:
In a large bowl, combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, almond extract (if using), and a pinch of salt. Toss until the cherries are well coated.
Assemble the pie:
Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Roll out one disc of dough on a lightly floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan.
Pour the cherry filling into the pie crust, and then dot with butter.
Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling. Trim any excess dough, and crimp the edges to seal. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Optional: Brush the top with a bit of milk or beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake:
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Let the pie cool for at least 2 hours before slicing.
Keep stirring, keep savoring, and always let your taste buds lead the way!

Cherry pie can be taken two ways: as a sweet dessert or, depending on your mindset, something a little more... cheeky. But don't worry, this is the kind of pie you eatβnope, that doesnβt work either, Man! Iβm as baked as this pie!"
