I was going to title this “I made pie!”, but I’ve done that many times before. This was my very first foray into sweet pie though!
With the help of Pam’s Pie Tutorial I made a pie with so much butter that my arteries have nearly stopped functioning after eating it. But it was so incredibly tasty that I didn’t really care.
I used normal fresh cherries, as I’d bought a huge bag of them at the market, and only found out afterwards that you usually make cherry pie with tart cherries. There are plenty of recipes out there for making pie with normal cherries though.
After the mammoth task of getting the pits out (which really is as messy as everyone on the internet suggests – especially with a wee Moosling crawling around wanting to help… and eat cherries) the pie making was really straight forward. I must make more pies!
