Homemade Cherry Pie Filling#FoodieHoliday

In: Cherries, Foodie Holiday, Homemade

No store-bought pie filling because today we’re making cherry pie filling completely from scratch with fresh cherries and preservatives free. The flavor of the cherry pie filling with few drops of vanilla and almond extracts add richness and depth and a touch of lemon juice keeps the overall flavor fresh and bright.

I used stevia to reduce the sugar in this pie filling and it taste so good. Homemade cherry pie filling that uses fresh or frozen tart red cherries is easy to make on the stovetop in 15 minutes with just 3 simple ingredients. My cherry pie filling recipe is the thick, juicy cherry pie filling.

Ingredients

2 Cups Cherries - pitted & halved
2 Tablespoons Sugar
1 Teaspoon Stevia
1 Tablespoons Corn Flour
1 Tablespoon Lime juice
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
3 -4 Drops Almond extract
¼ Cup Water

Method

In a large sauce pan, add the cherries, sugar, water , lemon juice, together until thoroughly combined. Place this on medium low flame and let is cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the cherries soften . Then add the cornstarch cook till the filling thickens. Switch off the flame add the vanilla, and almond extract and let it cool. Used the stick blender to make a slightly chunky pie filling. Cover filling and place in the refrigerator and use whenever you want.

You can freeze this pie filling for 6 months too. It stay good in the freezer.
