Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a bowl combine cherries, sugar, Black Cherry Balsamic, cornstarch and fresh rosemary, and stir until combined. Set aside.
- Prepare homemade pie dough or remove store bought from refrigerator and unwrap. You want a 12-inch circle. Carefully place one dough into a 9x2 inch pie dish.
- Gently press dough into place with your fingers.
- Pour the filling into the crust, including the juices.
- Place the second pie dough onto a well floured surface and slice pieces to lay over the top. of the pie filling, making them in a criss-cross pattern.
- Using a small pairing knife, trim off any excess pie dough overhanging the pie dish. Press the edges of the two pie crusts together to seal.
- Fold the ends of the pie crust underneath itself to create a thick edging. Press with your fingers to create the scallop edge.
- In a small bowl whisk together egg, milk and Rosemary Olive Oil to create the egg wash.
- Lightly brush the top of the pie crust with the egg wash. Sprinkle the top with Cherry Sugar.
- Place the pie onto a large baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
- With the pie untouched and still in the oven, turn the temperature down to 375°F and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes. If pie crust is browning too quickly, cover with pie crust shield or make one with foil.
- Allow the pie to cool for 3 full hours on a cooling rack at room temperature before serving. This helps the cherry filling to cool and thicken up.
