Double Cherry Pie Recipe - Cooking Index
4 cups | 250g / 8.8oz | Frozen unsweetened tart cherries |
1 cup | 62g / 2.2oz | Dried tart cherries |
1 cup | 198g / 7oz | Granulated sugar |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Quick-cooking tapioca |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Almond extract |
1 | Pastry for 2-crust 9-inch pie | |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Ground nutmeg |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Butter |
Combine frozen cherries, dried cherries, granulated sugar, tapioca and almond extract in a large mixing bowl; mix well. (It is not necessary to thaw cherries before using.) Let cherry mixture stand 15 minutes.
Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry; fill with cherry mixture. Sprinkle with nutmeg. Dot with butter. Adjust top crust, cutting slits for steam to escape.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven about 1 hour, or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. If necessary, cover edge of crust with aluminum foil to prevent overbrowning.
