Description

This classic Cherry Pie is the ultimate comfort food, combining a buttery, flaky pastry with a luscious filling of sweet-tart cherries. The fruit is gently spiced with cinnamon and cloves, creating a warm, aromatic flavor profile that feels both nostalgic and sophisticated. Whether you use fresh pitted cherries or convenient canned varieties, the result is a glossy, jammy center encased in a golden-brown crust.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ðF (200ðC).
  2. Line a 9-inch pie pan with the bottom half of the pastry dough and refrigerate until ready to use.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the drained cherries with lemon juice and red food coloring (if using canned cherries).
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, and cloves.
  5. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the cherries and gently fold until the fruit is evenly coated.
  6. Pour the cherry filling into the prepared pie crust.
  7. Dot the top of the filling with small pieces of butter.
  8. Cover with the top pastry crust, sealing and crimping the edges to enclose the filling.
  9. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
  10. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  11. Remove from oven and allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
