Cherry Glaze Pie Recipes

Steps:

• HEAT oven to 400 degrees F. Coat cookie sheet with no-stick cooking spray.
• PREPARE recipe for double crust pie. Roll entire recipe into one thick 10-inch circle. Stir preserves and cornstarch in small bowl until smooth. Spread on one-half of the dough, to within about 1-inch from the edge. Fold in half. Press edges together. Flute edges or press with a fork to seal.
• BAKE 20 to 25 minutes or until top is light golden brown. Cool 15 minutes. Stir powdered sugar and milk in small bowl until blended. Spread over entire surface of pie. Cool 15 minutes or until glaze hardens.
• If using a package of refrigerated pie crusts, place one crust on top of the other to make a thick crust.
• For variation, try other Orchard's Finest® Preserves in this recipe - Coastal Vally Peach Apricot, Northwoods Blueberry, Northwest Triple Berry.

Steps:

• Place cherries in medium saucepan and place over heat. Cover. After the cherries lose considerable juice, which may take a few minutes, remove from heat. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cornstarch together. Pour this mixture into the hot cherries and mix well. Add the almond extract, if desired, and mix. Return the mixture to the stove and cook over low heat until thickened, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat and let cool. If the filling is too thick, add a little water, too thin, add a little more cornstarch.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Use your favorite pie dough recipe. Prepare your crust. Divide in half. Roll out each piece large enough to fit into an 8 to 9-inch pan. Pour cooled cherry mixture into the crust. Dot with butter. Moisten edge of bottom crust. Place top crust on and flute the edge of the pie. Make a slit in the middle of the crust for steam to escape. Sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake for about 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and place on a rack to cool.

Steps:

• Place sweetened condensed milk in mixing bowl. Add the real lemon juice and blend with a whisk until blended (not stirring to hard). Add the vanilla and almond extract. Stir until well blended. Add Cool Whip or whip cream by folding into other ingredients. Pour into a prepared baked pie shell. (I use Pillsbury Roll Out pie crust here, they are great and a great time saver). Place in refridgerator for about 2 hours before serving. Take out, pour can of cherry pie filling on top (you can use any kind of pie filling here, blueberry tastes great also!). Put a couple of dollops of whip cream on top if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
• In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in almond extract. Fold in flour until just blended. Spread batter into prepared pan. With the tip of a knife, mark squares in the batter. Spoon equal portions of pie filling in the center of each square.
• Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool, then dust with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, cornstarch, frozen dark cherries and vanilla in large bowl. Allow cherries to thaw and stir.
• Line pie plate with pastry.
• Distribute sliced almonds evenly on top of the crust.
• Pour can of pie filling on top of almonds.
• Next pour dark cherry mixture on top of filling.
• Cover with second pastry.
• Poke small slits on top crust.
• Bake at 350 until crust is golden brown.
• Mix powdered sugar and milk to create a glaze.
• Distrubute over top and you are done.

Steps:

• Place cherries into a saucepan over medium heat, and cover the pan; heat cherries until they release their juice and come to a simmer, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir often.
• In a bowl, whisk the sugar with cornstarch until smooth; pour the mixture into the hot cherries and juice, and thoroughly combine. Return to low heat, bring to a simmer, and cook until the filling has thickened, about 2 minutes; remove from heat, let cool, and use as pie filling.
