How to Make Tarte Montmorency
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare your pie crust (either homemade or store-bought). Roll it out and carefully fit it into your 11-12 inch flan pan.
- In a large bowl, gently toss the pitted sour cherries with the sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and almond extract.
- Pour the cherry mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and thickened. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
- Serve your Tarte Montmorency chilled or warmed slightly, topped with a generous dollop of crème fraîche or whipped cream.
