Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups cherries, pitted and halved
3 tablespoons tapioca
1 cup white sugar
ΒΌ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Line 8 inch pie plate with heavy foil or freezer wrap letting it extend 5 inches beyond rim. Add the 1 quart filling.
  • Loosely cover filling with the lining foil or paper. Freeze until firm. When firm, remove from pie plate and wrap tightly. Return frozen pie filling to freezer.
  • To prepare pie for baking: For each pie prepare a two crust pastry. Line 9 inch pie plate with pastry. Remove freezer wrap from frozen shaped pie filling. Place in pastry lined 9 inch pan. Dot with 1 tablespoon butter and, if desired, sprinkle with cinnamon. Adjust top crust and finish pie as usual. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 1 hour or until syrup boils with heavy bubbles that do not burst.
  • Note: With such fruits as peaches, pears or cherries, stir about 1/2 teaspoon ascorbic acid into sugar before combining with fruit.

I found that this pie filling was a bit too runny. I had to add some cornstarch to thicken it up.

This pie filling is a great way to use up extra fruit. I had some leftover blueberries and strawberries, and this was the perfect way to use them up.
