I had some trouble getting the crust to roll out properly, but other than that, this pie was easy to make. It was also very delicious.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. The crust was very good though.

This cherry almond pie was a hit with my family! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was perfectly sweet and tart. I'll definitely be making this again.
