- 2 lbs pitted cherries fresh or frozen (do not thaw)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice

Egg Wash
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place parchment paper on the baking sheet.
- In a bowl: add pitted cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, almond extract and mix everything together. Set aside.
- Place the 12" round pie crust or galette dough onto the baking sheet. Add cherry filling in the center of the dough, leaving 1 ½" border around the edges. Gently fold the dough over the cherries, pleating the edges to hold its shape.

- Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden. Cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
