Cherry Pie

Cherry Pie

Made with fresh cherries. Usually the store only carries sweet cherries which works - I cut back the sugar

  • 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
  • 2-1/2 tablespoons of cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • dash of salt
  • 1 cup red wine - I used Burgundy (but any sweet red will do)
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 3 cup fresh cherries - pitted
  • 6 to 8 drops of almond extract
  • Pastry for 9 inch pie - I usually use the pre made from the refrigerator section of the store.
