RED, WHITE, AND BLUE CHERRY PIE

This is by far the easiest recipe I have on my blog. I understand that sometimes you don't want to spend ALL day making a dessert for a family occasion.

This pie is the perfect fix for that! My son had a BLAST helping me cut out the stars for the top.

HOMEMADE CHERRY PIE FILLING

I did use the premade pie filling for this recipe, but if you have some fresh cherries you want to use for the filling feel free to replace the filling with a homemade version.

I love using this one from My Baking Addiction!

INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR A RED, WHITE, AND BLUE CHERRY PIE

Pie Crust- you can use premade or make your own!

Cherry Pie Filling- again make your own or go store bought.

White Cookie Frosting- I recommend using store bought here just because I used so little of it, it was more convenient to use store bought tubes of frosting.

Coarse Sugar- This is optional, but I sprinkled a little coarse sugar on some of the stars to give it a little interest and texture. I use Sugar In The Raw.

Egg- This is used for the egg wash to brush over the crust.

Blueberries- To add the "blue" to your pie.

TOOLS USED

Cherry Pitter- If you want to go the homemade route, this little tool is SO helpful.

Pie Plate

Rolling Mat- For rolling out the dough and cutting those cute little stars.

Star Cookie Cutters

Pie Crust Shields- I always thought these were a waste of time.. but they are SOOOOO helpful. Highly recommend for all pie recipes!

• If using, sprinkle some stars with coarse sugar.
• Place in oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. Check during baking to see if the crust is starting to brown too much. If so, place aluminum foil over exterior crust or other burning areas (ore use a handy crust guard I linked above)
