AUNT BETTY'S MOCK CHERRY PIE



Aunt Betty's Mock Cherry Pie image

Here in New England, where cranberries are more plentiful (and less expensive) than cherries, my dear sister-in-law would make this pie every year. We lost her a few years ago, but will always remember her warm and loving personality through her recipes.

MOCK CHERRY PIE (CRANBERRY & RAISIN)



MOCK CHERRY PIE (Cranberry & Raisin) image

I got this recipe from my mother-in-law (sometime after 1962) and it was usually served at Thanksgiving time or Christmas at our house. It's made the way I love it, a little tangy but sweet, and the color is gorgeous for the holidays, with a top and bottom crust, using my homemade pie crust recipe. I love rolling the dough,...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

IN THE TOP OF A DOUBLE BOILER, STIR RAISINS AND WATER, SOAK 20 MINS.
3/4 c water
1/2 c raisins
2 c fresh whole cranberries
3/4 c sugar (use 1 cup for less tart filling) or 1/2 cup sugar and ! tbs.maple syrup!
1 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
1 large honey crisp apple,skin left on it; but seeded and chopped. (optional).
ADD THE CRANBERRIES AND SUGAR, COVER AND COOK OVER BOILING WATER

Steps:

  • 1. Cook over boiling water,stirring often, the cranberries will pop and the mixture will thicken. For some reason it takes longer sometimes, and today it did, so I added 1 Tbs. cornstarch in a little cold water, stirred it and added it to the cranberry mixture, and continued cooking it another ten minutes.
  • 2. Some people like to add a little Vanilla extract to this. I don't always, but it does change it slightly, today I did add the vanilla.
  • 3. Cool the filling, and prepare the pie crust, using a bottom crust, standard pie pan, and a top crust. *Note: Although this time I made one very large crust,bottom crust only and folded it inwards, giving it a "rustic look". I adjusted the time and baked it about 50 minutes.
  • 4. For a two-crust pie I would Bake at 425 degrees for about 45 minutes.

THE BEST CHERRY PIE

This is a delicious pie filling. It's also a great recipe if you have a helper. If any juice bubbles over, it tastes really good on top of ice cream.

Time 1h23m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (15 ounce) package double crust ready-to-use pie crust
3 cups cherries, pitted
¾ cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons salted butter, cut into bits

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place bottom pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan; made pricks along the bottom with a fork.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until pie crust is lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Remove crust from oven and cool for 5 minutes.
  • Combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, and almond extract together in a bowl. Pour cherry mixture into the prepared pie pan; dot with butter. Cover with top crusts, crimp the edges to seal, and cut vents into the top with a sharp knife. Place the pie on a foil-covered baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. If it is browning too fast cover the pie with an aluminum foil tent. Continue baking until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 10 to 20 minutes. Place on a wire rack to cool, about 15 minutes.
