Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup(s) plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
2 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
2 tablespoon(s) quick-cooking tapioca
1/8 teaspoon(s) salt
3 1/2 cup(s) pitted fresh rainier cherries
12 cup(s) halved pitted fresh bing cherries
1 tablespoon(s) lemon juice
4 teaspoon(s) butter
- pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches)
2 teaspoon(s) milk

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, flour, tapioca and salt. Add cherries and lemon juice; toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes.
  • Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim even with edge of plate. Add filling; dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in pastry. Brush with milk and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
  • Bake at 400° for 45-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack.
