Ingredients:
vegetable cooking spray |
1 1/2 pounds fresh cherries, pitted |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/3 cup cherry preserves |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/2 (15-oz.) package refrigerated piecrusts |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1 large egg |
1 tablespoon sugar |
sweet cream topping (optional) |
Directions:
1. Line baking sheet with parchment paper; coat parchment paper with cooking spray. 2. Preheat oven to 350°. Stir together cherries and next 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Let stand 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3. Unroll piecrust on prepared baking sheet. Roll into a 12-inch circle. 4. Drain cherry mixture, reserving liquid. Toss cherries in flour. 5. Mound cherries in center of piecrust, leaving a 3-inch border. Fold piecrust border up and over cherries, pleating as you go, leaving an opening about 5 inches wide in center. 6. Stir together egg and 1 Tbsp. water. Brush piecrust with egg mixture, and sprinkle with 1 Tbsp. sugar. 7. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden. Carefully transfer tart on parchment paper to a wire rack; cool 20 minutes. 8. Meanwhile, bring reserved cherry liquid to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Boil 1 to 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Let cool slightly. Brush or drizzle 1 to 2 Tbsp. hot cherry liquid over exposed fruit in center of tart. Serve immediately with remaining cherry syrup, and, if desired, Sweet Cream Topping. |
