Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare pastry.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, stir together the cherries and sugar; add the cornstarch and mix well.
Step 3
Turn cherry pie filling mixture into a pastry lined pie plate. Sprinkle with almond extract and dot with butter. Cover with top crust; seal and flute edges. Cut slits in the top crust. Cover edge of crust with strips of foil to prevent over browning. Remove the foil strips 10-15 minutes of baking.
Step 4
Bake 60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and juice bubbles through slits. Remove from oven. Cool.
