Instructions
Pie Crust
- In a large bowl, combine sifted flour, salt, and sugar.
- Using a pastry cutter, mix the cold cubed butter into flour mixture until crumbly.
- Slowly add in ice water and continue to mix with the pastry cutter. Don’t overmix, it should be crumbly.
- Transfer onto working surface and shape into 2 disks. Cover the disks with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour (or overnight).
Cherry Pie Filling
- Pit the cherries. Cut about ⅓ of cherries in half (if desired). Combine with lemon juice, vanilla, sugar, and cornstarch.
Assemble Cherry Pie
- Roll out the pie crust until about 12” circle and transfer into a 9” pie pan. Pat down the pie crust to lay evenly along the pie pan, with some crust hanging over the edges.
- Add the pie filling into the pie crust.
- Roll out the second pie crust. Create the desired design on the pie crust. Place on top of the pie filling.
- Pinch together the leftover edges along the sides of the pie. Seal and flute the pie edges.
- Brush the pie with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar (if desired)
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 30 minutes. Turn down heat to 350°F and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes. If the top of pie begins to brown and the bottom isn’t done baking, cover pie loosely with foil until the bottom is done baking.
- Cool pie, slice and enjoy with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
