Boots in Va., with canned fruit, you need to use a
thickener, like cornstarch, so the fruit isn?t too runny.
Below is one I have made several times and it is so good!
Cherry Pie
1 baked pie shell
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. cornstarch
1/8 tsp. salt
2 (16 oz.) cans pitted tart red cherries (water pack),
drained
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1/3 c. sliced almonds
Bake pie shell. Set aside. Blend sugar, cornstarch and salt
in medium bowl. Stir in cherries. Microwave at High (100%)
until mixture is translucent, 8 to 11 minutes, stirring once
or twice during cooking. Stir in almond extract. Pour into
pie shell. Sprinkle with almonds. Makes 9" pie. Carol
