Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 pastry for a 9-inch single crust pie
1 (15 ounce) can pitted sour cherries, drained
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
⅛ teaspoon almond extract
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Unroll pie crust. Cut two 6-inch rounds from dough; cut remaining dough into 1/8-inch strips for a lattice crust. Fit rounds into two 5-inch pie plates.
Combine cherries, sugar, tapioca, and almond extract in a bowl; let stand for 5 minutes to soften tapioca. Stir filling again; spoon into pie shells.
Weave a lattice crust on each pie using dough strips. Start with the longest strips and lay in an X in centers of each pie. Alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under pattern. Use the shortest strips for the edges of the lattice. Pinch crusts together.
Bake in the preheated oven until crusts are golden brown and filling is bubbling and thickened, about 30 minutes. Cool before serving.
