gets rave reviews from even my Certified Pumpkin Pie Hater sibling.
Because you’re only using a bottom crust I don’t think it’s necessarily worth doing the second fold of the pie dough, I’ve made it with a different all-butter dough recipe and was still very satisfied

My ex’s mom made the best cherry pie and
after some mid attempts at recreating / sourcing solutions I made one from scratch to great success.
Here are my tips:
look forward to the journey. Come in knowing this will take 2-3 days and once you bake it for two hours you’ll need to still cool it. It will be worth it, trust. This brings me to –
make two pies at once. It seems crazy but i don’t think you’ll mess it up, I do think everyone will want seconds of your pie though. I thought this was a little much when my ex’s mom would deliberately have to ratio/portion out single servings and a reserve pie for everyone but now I see the brilliance.
use a ratio of frozen sour : sweet cherries. I used .75 lbs of sour and 2lbs of sweet with a half cup and a bit of sugar and it was European level sweet.
bake it in a cake pan! I was stressing because I broke my glass pie dish last year but I had lined springform pan with parchment paper and loved the result.
double or quad up on making pie crust!!! each recipe gives you a top and bottom for a closed pie, but I’m telling you, you’re not going to want to make this time intensive ass crust unless you're a tradwife influencer sponsored with Mormon church money.
trust in Claire Saffitz!

i love anything and all things pumpkin, and it’s definitely not limited to pumpkin pie. i have lots of wonderful memories baking it growing up and i have perfected my recipe over the years.
i also love oyster dressing (stuffing), which is a recipe that has been passed down on my dad’s side. i’ve never seen it anywhere except with my family

Put on the robe, turn on adult swim or whatever, crank the ac, eat a late night snack in one bed and sleep in the other. The freedom of impersonal liminal space.
