DESCRIPTION
Cherry Pie

SUMMARY
Yield 0 File under Pies

INSTRUCTIONS
6 cups frozen pie cherries
1 to 1/12 cups sugar, depending on how sweet you like it, I use the 1 1/2 cups
4 1/2 Tbsp quick-cooking tapioca
pinch to 1/4 tsp nutmeg
finely grated zest of 1 lemon
double crust pastry

Thaw cherries partly, if very juicy discard (or save for another use) half of the juice.
Mix all ingridents togethor and let sit for 20 minutes.
Line 10 inch pie plate with pastry, fill with cherries, top with pastry as a lattice or whole, slashing in a decorative pattern. Seal edges with water and flute. Can cut out pastry leafs and set on crust next to slashes.
Bake at 400 for 10 minutes then at 375 for 35 minutes, checking for pie to be done, if not bake longer (like duh!).
