Yields: 1 pie
Ingredients
Crust
- 3⁄4 cup flour
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1⁄4 cup butter, melted
Filling
- 4 cups tart cherries, with pits and stems removed
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
Topping
- 1⁄2 cup flour
- 1⁄2 cup rolled oats
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1⁄4 cup butter, softened
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine crust ingredients with a fork until mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a standard pie plate, using the back of a spoon or fingers.
- Combine filling ingredients in a large mixing bowl; set aside until juice begins to form (Note: If the cherries are especially juicy, add more cornstarch for thickening. Otherwise, the pie filling will not set up well). Pour cherry mixture into crust.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine topping ingredients until butter is thoroughly incorporated. With fingers, crumble atop cherry filling.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes or until topping is crispy and brown, and filling is bubbly.
- To allow the pie filling to set up well, cool for at least two hours on a wire rack.
- Cut into eight slices to serve. If desired, garnish each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
