Sour Cherry Pistachio Crisp Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. If using frozen cherries, spread them in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Let stand at room temperature until cherries have thawed almost completely but still hold their shape, about 30 minutes. Drain off any accumulated liquid.
• Whisk together the pistachios, flour, oats, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Put butter, brown sugar, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until creamy.
• Stir pistachio mixture into butter mixture until just combined. Work mixture through your fingers until it forms coarse crumbs ranging in size from small peas to gum balls; set topping aside.
• Stir together cherries, remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the cornstarch, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Transfer cherry mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle the topping evenly over cherry mixture. Bake until topping turns golden and juices are bubbling, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool on a wire rack 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Line the bottom of an oven with aluminum foil to catch spills. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square baking dish with the pie crust.
• Place cherries in a bowl. Let sit in the refrigerator for about 4 hours until juices start to come out. Gently press down on top of the cherries to release juice. Pour off 3/4 cup juice, reserving cherries in the bowl.
• Pour juice into a small saucepan over medium heat. Mix sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon together. Stir mixture into the juice before it starts to steam. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and keep stirring until mixture starts to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in vanilla and almond extracts.
• Pour juice mixture into the bowl with the cherries; stir until combined. Pour mixture into the prepared crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes while preparing the crumb topping.
• Mix brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in butter pieces with a fork until they're the size of small peas.
• Remove cherry pie from the oven. Top with the crumb topping and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cut a small hole in the center to help vent. Let cool, at least 1 hour. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• On a well-floured surface, roll the prepared pastry dough out to an even circle about 12-inch diameter. Carefully fold the dough in half and transfer it to a 9-inch pie pan. Unfold the dough and press gently so that it lines the bottom and sides of the pan - there should be some dough overhanging the edges. Leaving about 1/2-inch overhang, cut off any dough in excess of that. Tuck the overhang under and pinch the edges decoratively to make a fluted edge.
• In a large bowl, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Add the cherries and vanilla and stir until evenly coated. (If using frozen cherries, let thaw at room temperature before proceeding with the recipe).
• Place the pistachios in the bowl of a food processor. Chop coarsely using on/off pulses. Remove to a bowl. Add flour, butter and brown sugar to the processor and process, using on/off pulses until it form a crumble mixture that sticks together in clumps. Return the chopped pistachios to the processor and process briefly just until mixed.
• Spoon the cherry filling into prepared pastry crust, and sprinkle evenly with pistachio crumble topping.
• Place the pan on a pizza pan or a cookie sheet (to contain any spill-over from the pie as it bakes) and place in the preheated oven.
• Bake at 425F for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 375F and continue baking for about 60 minutes or until the filling begins to bubble through the crumble topping and the cherries are tender when pierced with a sharp knife.
• Let cool slightly before serving with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine cherries, 1 1/2 cups white sugar, and 4 tablespoons flour. Pour into 9x13 inch baking dish. In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, oats, and brown sugar. Cut in butter and shortening until crumbly. Sprinkle over cherries.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until topping is golden brown.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9" pie pan. In pan, mix cherries with 1 tablespoon sugar, juice and 1 tablespoon flour. In a food processor, pulse remaining 1/2 cup sugar, remaining 1/3 cup flour, pistachios, oats, walnuts, cardamom and salt until nuts are finely chopped, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in butter; sprinkle topping over cherries. Bake until juices bubble thickly and topping is browned, 25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Place cherries in an ungreased 9-in. pie plate. Sprinkle with sugar. In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over cherries. , Bake, uncovered, until top is bubbly, 30-40 minutes. Serve warm.
