Mmmmm...Cherry pie. We made it vegan for Eve and ate Soylicious vanilla soy ice cream with it. We finished the whole pie in one sitting. This pie pan is awesome because it's only 8 inches, requiring less fruit and less eating- 8 smallish slices.


I bought the least ripe cherries I could at the farmer's market.
4.5 c Cherries, pitted
0.75 c Sugar (evaporated cane juice) * I would use 0.5 c next time
3.5 Tbsp. Cornstarch
0.25 Tsp Almond extract
1 Tbsp. Water
1.5 Tbsp Lemon juice

Crust:
2.5 c Flour
1 c Shortening
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp powdered sugar (vegan)
