Ingredients

8 servings

•

1 (15 ounce) package double crust ready-to-use pie crust
•

3 (15 ounce) cans pitted sour cherries, drained
•

3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca

•

1 ½ cups white sugar
•

¼ teaspoon almond extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Press one pie crusts into a 9-inch pie plate.
Stir together cherries, tapioca, sugar, and almond extract in a bowl. Let the mixture stand for 3 to 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the other pie crust into 1/2-inch strips to make a lattice top. Pour cherry mixture into the pie shell. Lay the strips across the pie in a lattice pattern, and pinch the edges to seal.
Bake in the preheated oven 40 to 50 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool before serving.
