This recipe was given to me by my mother-in-law, who was a wonderful country cook. She always went the extra mile to make every meal special. Her breads were simply the best...this is one of my favorites. Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) hot roll mix |
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling |
filling: |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1 egg |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
topping: |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/2 cup cold butter |
Directions:
1. Prepare hot roll mix and knead dough according to package directions. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll into a 15-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
3. Spread pie filling over dough. Combine the sour cream, egg, sugar and almond extract; drizzle over filling. In small bowl, combine flour and sugar; cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over filling.
4. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. STore in the refrigerator. Yield: 16-20 servings.
