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

 1 1/4 c  Sugar
   1/3 c  Cornstarch
     1 c  Cherry juice blend
     4 c  Pitted tart cherries; thawed

   1/2 ts Ground cinnamon

     2 c  A-P flour
   1/2 ts Salt
   2/3 c  Shortening
     7 tb Cold water; as needed
     1 lg Egg; beaten, opt

 Set oven @ 425oF/218oC.

 In a large saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch;
 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 375oF/190oC; bake
 until crust is golden brown, 45-50 minutes. Cool on a
 wire rack.
