Bing Cherry Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 (15 ounce) package double crust ready-to-use pie crust
  • 4 cups Bing cherries, pitted and sliced
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup instant tapioca
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit or 200 degrees Celsius.
2
Take the bottom pie crust and press it into a circular pie dish, making sure to cover the entire surface.
3
In a separate bowl, mix together the cherries, sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, and almond extract until well combined.
4
Allow the cherry mixture to chill in the refrigerator for approximately 10 minutes, or until it starts to thicken slightly.
5
Stir the filling again and return it to the refrigerator for another 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
6
Carefully pour the chilled cherry filling into the bottom half of the pie crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
7
Cover the filling with the top pie crust and crimp the edges to seal the pie, making sure there are no gaps or openings.
8
Dot the top crust with small pieces of butter, adding a touch of richness to the pie.
9
Using a sharp knife, cut small slits or vents into the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
10
Bake the pie in a preheated oven for 30 minutes, then rotate it by one-quarter of a turn to ensure even cooking.
11
Continue baking the pie until the top crust is golden brown, approximately 20 minutes later.
