Real Deal Cherry Pie<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Makes one 1\/4 sheet slab pie<\/p>\n

This pie makes the best of one of summer\u2019s most fleeting pleasures, sour cherries. They are only available for a few weeks in late June\/early July, but they are worth the wait, and the trouble of pitting them. The crust uses a bit of rye flour which adds some nutty and creamy flavor to the crust, and pairs beautifully with fruit desserts. Use an equal amount of all purpose flour if you have rye flour on hand. This filling recipe was lightly adapted from\u00a0Deb at Smitten Kitchen<\/a>, who adapted from Martha Stewart<\/a>, and loves sour cherries as much as I do.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rye Crust<\/strong><\/p>\n

340g\/2 2\/3 cups all purpose flour<\/p>\n

170g\/1 1\/3 cups rye flour (I used Abruzzi Heirloom Rye from Anson Mills)<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon brown sugar<\/p>\n

1 teaspoon kosher salt<\/p>\n

10-12 tablespoons ice water<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar<\/p>\n

340g\/1 1\/4 cups unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon sized pieces<\/p>\n

Filling<\/strong><\/p>\n

900g\/about 6 cups pitted sour cherries<\/p>\n

3\/4 cup + 1 tablespoon (165g) sugar (I used a natural cane sugar here, but granulated works too)<\/p>\n

30g\/1\/4 cup cornstarch<\/p>\n

Juice of 1\/2 lemon<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste<\/p>\n

Pinch salt<\/p>\n

\u00a0To finish<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 egg, for egg wash<\/p>\n

Turbinado sugar to finish<\/p>\n

To make the crust: Add the flours, brown sugar, and salt to a large bowl. Stir them together until combined. Add the apple cider vinegar to the ice water. Working quickly, add the butter to the flour and toss to coat. Then use your fingers or the palms of your hands to press each cube of butter into a flat sheet. Keep tossing the butter as you go to ensure that each butter piece is coated with flour. The idea is to create thin, flat shards of butter that range from about the size of a dime to about the size of a quarter. Sprinkle about 6 tablespoons of the water over the flour mixture and use your hands to mix gently, making sure to get all of the way down to the bottom of the bowl. Continue to add more water a couple of teaspoons at a time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You have added enough water when you can pick up a handful of the dough and squeeze it together easily without it falling apart.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Press the dough together, then pat it into a rectangle. Fold the dough into thirds like a letter, then split it in to two pieces one slightly larger than the other, form each piece into a rectangle and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Chill the dough for at least one hour before using, or overnight. I prefer an overnight rest if possible.<\/p>\n

When you are ready to bake the pie, heat your oven to 400\u00baF.<\/p>\n

Add the pitted cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla bean paste, and salt to a large bowl and stir gently to combine.<\/p>\n

Roll the larger piece of the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 11×15. Gently tuck it into a metal quarter sheet pan, letting the excess hang over the sides. Roll the other piece of dough into a rectangle about 10×14.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pour the cherries into the dough lined pan and top with other piece of dough. Gently fold the bottom dough up and over the top and press gently. Refrigerate the pie until the crust is firm, about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

While the pie chills, beat the egg with a few drops of water to make the egg wash. When the pie is nice and chilled gently brush the surface with egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Cut a few vents in the top then bake until the crust is deep golden brown and the juices are bubbling, 45-60 minutes.<\/p>\n

Let the pie cool on a rack before serving warm or at room temperature. Ice cream is optional, but highly suggested.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
