This Red, White, and Blue Cherry Pie requires only five ingredients and is an easy recipe to whip up on any patriotic holiday. Premade pie crust, cherry pie filling, and white frosting are all that you need to make this beautiful pie! It is super easy, but will impress a crowd.

Ingredients
  

  • 40 ounces cherry pie filling
  • 1 package pie crust (2 crusts) softened according to package directions
  • 1 egg
  • Cookie frosting
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • Vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Press one pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp edges using your thumb and forefinger.
  • Pour cherry pie filling into unbaked pie crust.
  • Using a 1-inch star shaped cookie cutter, cut 12-14 stars from the second pie crust. Place in a pattern over cherries, overlapping in some places and touching the exterior crust in others.
  • In a small bowl, beat egg and brush over pie crust edges and star cut-outs.
  • 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)
  • Remove and allow to cool fully.
  • When cool, outline several stars with cookie frosting and place blueberries around the top of the cake.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
