- 4 cups frozen cherries
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- Juice from half a lemon
- Zest from half a lemon
- 3 tablespoon corn starch
- 1 frozen pie crust
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
*Tip: use frozen cherries since they come pitted and you don't have to waste time pitting them.
**Another tip: Try cutting the cherries in half. This step isn’t necessary, but I found that the cherries released more flavor this way.
In a large bowl, combine the cherries, coconut sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and corn starch. This is your pie filling.
*Note: no need to defrost the cherries, you can use them straight out of the freezer.
Poke several hole on the bottom of your pie crust with a fork.
Bake your frozen pie crust in the oven for about 10 minutes on 400*F (this is so the crust doesn’t get soggy).
When your crust is done, pour the pie filling into the crust and bake for half an hour.
