Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds fresh sour cherries (tart) cherries (or 3 pounds drained and thawed frozen cherries), pitted (6 cups)
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Essential Pate Brisee
All-purpose flour, for surface
1 large egg, lightly beaten with 2 tablespoons heavy cream, for egg wash

Steps:

  • Make the filling: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss together the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla in a bowl.
  • Make the crust: Roll out 1 disk pate brisee to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Pour in filling; dot with butter. Refrigerate while making top crust.
  • Roll remaining disk pate brisee to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 4 to 5 holes using a 3/4-inch round cookie cutter or pastry tip. Place on top of pie.
  • Trim bottom and top crusts to a 1-inch overhang using kitchen shears and press together to seal around edges. Fold edges under; crimp as desired. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • Brush crust with egg wash. Bake pie on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet set on the middle rack, until pie is bubbling in center and crust is golden, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours. Transfer pie to a wire rack and let cool before serving.

FRESH SOUR CHERRY PIE



Fresh Sour Cherry Pie image

This is a tart, yet sweet, pie I make with sour Montmorency cherries found on a tree in my yard. I recommend using Trader Joe's French Pastry pie crust, and a woven top really shows off the cherries. It turns out perfect every time! Serve plain or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh sour cherries: Fresh sour cherries will give your pie the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries. Just be sure to thaw frozen cherries before using them.
  • Pit the cherries: Before you can use the cherries in your pie, you need to pit them. You can use a cherry pitter to make this task easier.
  • Make sure the cherries are dry: Before you add the cherries to your pie, make sure they are dry. This will help to prevent the pie from being too wet.
  • Use a thickener: Sour cherries are very juicy, so you need to use a thickener in your pie filling to prevent it from being too runny. You can use cornstarch, flour, or tapioca as a thickener.
  • Don't overcook the pie: Sour cherry pie is best when it is slightly undercooked. The cherries should still have a little bit of a bite to them.

Conclusion:

Sour cherry pie is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can make the best sour cherry pie possible. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
