Instructions

  1. Roll one pie crust into the bottom of a glass pie plate and refrigerate while making the filling.
  2. In a large bowl, toss fresh cherries together with sugar, lemon juice, almond extract, flour and corn starch. Pour into pie plate and spread cherry filling out to fill evenly. Dot the top with butter.
