Healthy Recipe: Cherry Pie
We already have cherries being sold all over the place: markets, supermarkets, on the streets, on our way to the coast, etc. Some cherries are just so red and big that we just want to stop, buy and eat them. I usually eat simple cherries but I also like to put them in fruit salad and to decorate desserts.
Today I bring here a classic, an old but always update recipe.
CHERRY PIE
Ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar (1 1/4 cup if using sour cherries)
- 4 cups fresh pitted cherries
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/4 cup flour
- pastry for a double crust pie
Directions:
- Mix the sugar, cherries, cinnamon and flour together.
- Pour mixture into a pastry-lined 9 inch pie pan. Place top crust on pie, cut slits in top to vent and pinch the edges of the crust to flute.
- Brush top of crust with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake at 425F for 25 minutes, then reduce heat to 350F and bake for an additional 25 to 30 minutes.
I found this recipe by Donna Diegel at Suite101.
Who said you need Lipovox or other diets, using fresh fruit is always a healthy way to eat and stay fit.
