National Cherry Pie Day

A cherry pie is a type of pie that is made with a filling of sweet cherries. The pie filling is usually made by combining pitted cherries with sugar, cornstarch, and sometimes other ingredients such as lemon juice, cinnamon, or almond extract. The filling is poured into a pastry crust and topped with another layer of pastry. The pie is then baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Cherry pies are a popular dessert in many parts of the world, particularly in North America. They are often served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Cherry pies can be made with fresh or frozen cherries, and can be customized with different spices, sweeteners, or crusts. Some recipes may also include other fruits or berries in the filling, or add a crumb topping or lattice crust to the pie. Cherry pie is a classic dessert that is enjoyed year-round, but is especially popular during the summer months when fresh cherries are in season. It is a sweet and tart treat that is sure to satisfy anyone with a sweet tooth.
