Pitting the cherries is a task. But it is absolutely worth it compared to using canned sour cherries.

Easy, pretty, very tasty. Picked my own cherries at a local orchard. Next time I will up the amount of sugar as the cherries I picked were a bit tart.

This was my first pie! Delish! I also made my own crust, which turned out well too! My boyfriend's grandma gave him the cherries and i turned them into a great pie with out much trouble! Great Recipe!

I am not a baker, almost never make pies but had a load of cherries so decided to try a pie. I also increased to 1/4 a cup of flour, but everything else the same. Great pie, my husband loved it.! Thanks

Wow! We used pie cherries fresh off our tree and this recipe had the folks lined up for seconds and thirds! This one went instantly to the top of our list. Thanks!

Add 1/4-1/2 tsp almond extract. Really takes it up a notch.

Well, I must be the odd person out. I had never made a cherry pie using fresh cherries so I made this exactly as written. 2 1/2 CUPS of cherries??? I am an apple pie maker and when I made the filling mixture it didn't look right to me. I did add a few more cherries but it still was not enough. I used a 9" pie plate as instructed but the cherries sat way too low. The finished pie was delicious but too sweet and I love sweet. I did check a bunch of other recipes after I made this and the smallest amount of cherries called for were 4 cups with most being 6 cups/ 2pounds. I did look at the some of the other reviews before makings and no one mentioned this. HELP..WHAT DID I DO WRONG? I won't be making this again.
