4 cups washed, pitted sweet cherries
1 1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
milk
sugar
Recipe
Heat oven to 425*. Line a 9" pie pan with bottom piecrust. Stir together
sugar and flour; mix with cherries. Turn into pastry-lined pie pan. Cover with top
crust which has slits cut in it; seal and flute. Brush milk over top crust
and sprinkle with a couple teaspoons of sugar. Bake 35-45 minutes or until crust
is brown and juice begins to bubble through slits in crust. *note be sure to
place the pie pan on a cookie sheet to prevent oven spills.
Cherry tip: A fast easy way to pit cherries: hold the cherry between your
thumb and index finger with stem end pointing towards a bowl and squeeze. The pit
should pop out with some juice. Be sure to catch the flavorful juice to use
in your recipes.
It was a bit stressful trying to keep up with everything and take care of the
cherries, but it was all worth it in the end. We enjoyed luscious desserts,
fresh fruit, but most importantly we were able to share our bountiful harvest!
