Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly. (1 hour)
For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the ground cherry filling.
If ground cherries are not available, you can experiment with other small, tart fruits like cranberries or gooseberries.
Ensure the butter for the crumb topping is very cold for the best texture.
