 Categories: Pies, Pastry, Fruits, Spices
      Yield: 6 Servings

  1 1/4 c  Sugar
    1/3 c  Corn starch
      1 c  Cherry juice blend
      4 c  Pitted tart cherries; thawed
           - if frozen
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
    1/4 ts Almond extract

MMMMM---------------------------DOUGH--------------------------------
      2 c  A-P flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    2/3 c  Shortening
      7 tb Water; cold, as needed
      1 lg Egg; beaten (optional)

  Set oven @ 425°F/218°C.

  In a large saucepan, combine sugar and corn starch; gradually stir
  in cherry juice until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until
  thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add cherries,
  cinnamon, nutmeg, and extract.

  In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in shortening until
  crumbly. Gradually add cold water, tossing with a fork until a ball
  forms. Divide dough in half so that 1 ball is slightly larger than
  the other.

  On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger ball to fit a 9" pie
  plate. Transfer dough to pie plate; trim even with edge of plate.
  Add filling. Roll out remaining dough; make a lattice crust. Trim,
  seal and flute edge. If desired, brush with beaten egg.

  Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 375°F/190°C; bake until crust
  is golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
