📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, salt and sugar. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until pea sized crumbs.
sugar3 tablespoons
2
Sprinkle the cold water over the mixture, lightly stirring with a fork until dough forms into a ball. Chill the dough for at least an hour. This makes it much easier to handle.
3
Preheat oven to 400 F. Mix the cherries with the sugar and cornstarch.
sugar3 tablespoons
4
Divide the dough into fourths. Roll out each fourth into a 8 in round circle. Trim the edges a bit with a knife, if necessary.
5
Spoon a cup of the cherries into the middle of each circle, leaving about an inch and a half of crust around the edges.
6
Gently fold the edge of the crust over the cherries, pleating as you go. Brush the crust with a beaten egg. Bake for ⏱️ 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cherries are tender.
