Ingredients
- 6 cups sweet cherries pitted
- 1 cup water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the cherries, water, lemon juice sugar and cornstarch in a large pot. Stir to combine.
- Bring the cherry mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the vanilla extract. Cool, then serve, or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- This recipe is written for sweet cherries, but will also work for sour cherries. If you’re using sour cherries, increase the sugar by 1/4 cup, or you can add even more than that if you prefer a sweeter filling.
- You can store your pie filling in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months. If you’re freezing the filling, you’ll want to thaw it before it’s added to a pie.
