Recipe View Place the pie pan on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cherry filling is bubbling. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, you can loosely tent the pie with aluminum foil during the last 20-30 minutes of baking. (75 minutes)

Recipe View Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly. (2 hours)

For best results, use very cold butter to create a tender and crumbly topping.
If you don't have fresh cherries, you can use frozen pitted cherries. Thaw them slightly and drain off any excess liquid before using.
Feel free to experiment with different nuts in the crumb topping, such as pecans or walnuts.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
