List of Ingredients




4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter-flavored shortening
1 egg
1/4 cup water
1-1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
2 cans (21 ounces each) cherry pie filling
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup cold butter or margarine

Recipe



a bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. In another bowl, whisk the egg, water and vinegar. Stir into flour mixture with a fork. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a 15-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Transfer to a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 400° for 6-8 minutes or until firm and dry to the touch.

Meanwhile, combine pie filling and orange peel; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and remaining flour; cut in butter until crumbly. Spread cherry mixture over crust. Sprinkle with crumb mixture. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes before cutting.

Yield: About 2-1/2 dozen.
