Method
For the Pie
- 1
Prepare the Pie Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pitted cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Gently toss until the cherries are well coated. Let the filling sit for about 15 minutes to allow the juices to release.

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 3
Prepare the Pie Crust
Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Pour the cherry filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.
- 4
Top with Second Crust
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the cherry filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- 5
Bake the Pie
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
- 6
Cool and Serve
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
