    Title: Evan's Cherry Pie
    Categories: Pies, Pastry, Fruits
    Yield: 6 servings

    2 Discs frozen pastry
    5 c Pitted cherries
    2 1/2 c Sugar
    1/3 c + 2 tb cornstarch
    1/2 ts Salt
    Zest of one lemon
    2 tb Unsalted butter; in 1/2"
    - cubes

    Place cherries in large bowl; whisk together sugar and
    cornstarch, pour over cherries, and lemon zest and salt;
    toss gently.

    Set oven @ 450ºF/230ºC

    On lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pastry
    and fit into 10" (23 cm) pie plate; pour in cherry
    filling and daub with butter.

    Roll out remaining pastry, cover pie and crimp, or cut
    top pastry into 1" (2.5 cm) wide strips and weave about
    1/2" (1 cm) apart over filling to form lattice top;
    crimp edges (brush some egg under each strip where it
    meets bottom pastry edge on the rim and press to seal;
    fold both edges under and crimp: brush lattice with egg
    and sprinkle pie with sugar).

    Bake in bottom third of oven for 15 minutes; reduce heat
    to 350ºF/190ºC; bake for 65 to 70 minutes or until
    pastry is golden and filling is bubbly and thickened.

    Let cool completely on rack and serve with vanilla ice
    cream.
