Cherry pie

Ingredients

• 1 kg cherries
• 3 art. l. cornstarch
• 150 g sugar
• 1 egg
• powdered sugar
• 150 g sugar
• 2 eggs
• 200 g butter
• 1 cup heavy sour cream
• 3-4 cups flour

Cooking

Step 1

For the dough: rub sugar with eggs and butter, add sour cream and mix thoroughly. Then add 3-4 cups of flour in portions to make a soft, elastic dough. Divide the dough into 2 parts: 2/3 and 1/3.

Step 2

Remove pits from cherries, sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to combine.

Step 3

Roll out most of the dough and place on a baking sheet so that the edges of the dough hang slightly from the sides. Put berries on top, sprinkle with sugar.

Step 4

Fold the edges of the pastry over the berries. From the remaining dough, roll up several long sausages and build a “lattice” out of them on top of the berries. Brush the dough with egg. Bake at 180°C for 40 minutes. Cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
