Ingredients:

  • 9 double pie crust. see my homemade piecrust from scratch recipe.
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 to 11/2 cups sugar (depending on the sweetness of the fruit and your taste)
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp grated orange zest
  • 1 1/2 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F
  2. Place the cherries in a large bowl. Mix orange and lemon juices with the cornstarch, then combine with sugar, cinnamon and salt. Toss with the cherries. Let rest for 15 minutes.
  3. Add the almond extract and the orange zest; toss well.
  4. Line a 9-inch pie plate with one crust and prick all over with a fork.
  5. Spoon the cherry filling evenly into the crust and dot all over with butter.
  6. Cover with a top crust and moisten the crusts where they meet with water, then turn the top crust under the bottom and flute the edge.
  7. Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  8. Optionally decorate the top crust by rolling out dough scraps and cutting/forming into cherries, hearts, puppies, bowling balls, lunar landers, genitalia, or whatever shapes tickles your fancy.
  9. Bake pie in center of the oven for 10 minutes at 450°F. Reduce heat to 350°F and bake another 45 to 55 minutes, or until the crust is nicely golden.
  10. Let cool on a rack before serving warm or at room temperature.
