    Categories: Pies, Pastry, Fruits, Spices
    Yield: 6 servings

    1 1/4 c Sugar
    1/3 c Cornstarch
    1 c Cherry juice blend
    4 c Pitted tart cherries; thawed
    - if frozen
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
    1/4 ts Almond extract

    MMMMM---------------------------DOUGH--------------------------------
    2 c A-P flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    2/3 c Shortening
    7 tb Cold water; as needed
    1 lg Egg; beaten, opt

    Set oven @ 425oF/218oC.

    In a large saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch;
    gradually stir in cherry juice until smooth. Bring to a
    boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes.
    Remove from the heat. Add cherries, cinnamon, nutmeg and
    extract.

    In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in
    shortening until crumbly. Gradually add cold water,
    tossing with a fork until a ball forms. Divide dough in
    half so that 1 ball is slightly larger than the other.

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger ball to
    fit a 9" pie plate. Transfer dough to pie plate; trim
    even with edge of plate. Add filling. Roll out remaining
    dough; make a lattice crust. Trim, seal and flute edge.
    If desired, brush with beaten egg.

    Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 375oF/190oC; bake
    until crust is golden brown, 45-50 minutes. Cool on a
    wire rack.
