INGREDIENTS
  • 4 cups frozen unsweetened tart cherries
  • 1 cup dried tart cherries
  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 Pastry for 2-crust 9-inch pie
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon butter
DIRECTIONS
  1. 1. 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.
  2. 2. 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.
  3. 3. 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.
