SUMMARY
Yield 0 File under Pies

INSTRUCTIONS
This is a super easy, absolutely delicious recipe from the show "Semi-Homemade" with Sandra Lee on the Food Network. My husband often makes it when he is asked to "bring dessert".

1 can cherry pie filling
12 oz bag frozen mixed berries, thawed & well drained
1 Table. Kirsch (cherry liquor, don't skip this)
1 double pie crust (she uses box ready type)
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 Table. sugar (I like sparkling)

Preheat oven to 375.

In large bowl, combine pie filling, berries and Kirsch(I think the Kirsch makes it but I suppose you could use a teas. of almond extract instead). Set aside. Line floured pie plate with pastry. Pour filling into unbaked crust. Using a pie pan as guide, cut circle for top crust from sheet of pastry. Use lattice cutter to create pattern (or cut strips for your own lattice top). Flour each piece so that pieces of lattice do not stick. Top pie with lattice and flute edge. Brush top with egg and sprinke lightly with sugar.

Bake 40-50 minutes or until filling is bubbling in the middle of the pie. Cover with aluminum foil halfway through baking.

Let sit 20 minutes before serving.
