Cherry-Berry Pie

The red and blue fruit colors showing through the lattice crust make a great patriotic presentation for any 4th of July celebration.—Cathi Henke, Wauwatosa, Wisconsin

8 ServingsPrep: 30 min. Bake: 45 min. + cooling

Ingredients

2 cups fresh tart cherries, pitted
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Dash salt
1 package (15 ounces) refrigerated pie pastry
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg
1 tablespoon water

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients.
Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom crust; trim pastry even with edge.
Fill with fruit mixture and dot with butter. Make a lattice crust
with remaining pastry. Trim, seal and flute edges. Beat egg and
water; brush over lattice top.
Bake at 400° for 45-55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and
filling is bubbly. Cover edges with foil during the last 20 minutes
to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 8
servings.
