Cherry Pie
There’s something really homely about the smell of a freshly cooked fruit pie. This cherry one always goes down well:
Cherry Pie ingredients:
1 nine-inch vanilla wafer pie crust.
4 cups of pitted cherries.
2 cups of whipped cream.
1 cup of white sugar.
2 tablespoons of cold water.
2 tablespoons of corn starch.
4 teaspoons of lemon juice.
¼ envelope of unflavored gelatin.
Whipped cream, to serve with.
Cooking method:
In a small bowl, soften the gelatin in the cold water. Set aside.
In a suitably sized saucepan, mash 2 cups (half) of the cherries with the white sugar. Next, add in cornstarch and lemon juice; stirring gently.
Cook over a medium heat, stirring until the mixture turns thick and transparent.
Remove from the heat and add the gelatin and stir.
Slice the other 2 cups of cherries into the crust, then pour the mixture over top.
Chill for 5-6 hours.
Serve with whipped cream.
