4Th Generation Homemade Cherry Pie Receita

This is a treasured, from-scratch cherry pie recipe passed down through four generations! My grandmother discovered it on an old Crisco container – a testament to its incredible flavor. Unlike overly sweet cherry pies, this recipe strikes the perfect balance of tart and sweet, using a homemade crust that melts in your mouth. It takes about 45 minutes to assemble (though it may take you a bit longer – it's worth the effort!), and bakes to perfection in 75 minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an unforgettable dessert experience. This isn't just a pie; it's a piece of family history!

Como fazer 4Th Generation Homemade Cherry Pie

In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
Form the dough into two discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
In a large bowl, combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well.
Pour cherry filling into the pie crust.
Dot the top with small pieces of butter.
Roll out the second disc of dough and either place it over the filling or cut into strips for a lattice top. Crimp the edges to seal.
Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 75 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
