A must try!Īnyways, I did some research and found this reason on Cooks Illustrated: He was writing his cookbook, Marbled, Swirled and Layered and graciously asked me to go over his recipe for Lemon-Blackberry Chess Pie. I first read about adding alcohol to dough after being asked to test a pie recipe for Irvin over at Eat the Love. I add a little more texture by tossing in some oats. It’s a crumbly topping made of flour, butter, and sugar that is baked on top of pies, cakes, muffins and breads. They’re both the same to me, but I get an instant dessert image from crumb topping and danish image calling something with streusel. We’re talking dessert comfort food right here! Crumb Topping or Streusel? I make this cherry pie from scratch with a homemade pie crust (yes, you could buy a frozen one if it’s not your thing), fresh or frozen pitted cherries depending on what’s available, a kiss of balsamic vinegar for a slight orange flavor and acid to counter the sweetness, and a buttery crumb topping. I thought about calling this favorite pie of mine just Cheery Pie, but it didn’t use a top layer of dough and then Cherry Crumb Pie came to mind, but settled on Cherry Pie with Crumb Topping because that perfectly describes exactly what it is. Summer time means lots of fresh fruit desserts and this is one of my favorites.
It’s perfect for any family dinner, BBQ or holiday get together! Tender, flaky crust loaded with juicy cherries in a thick sauce and buttery crumbles of sugary dough on top baked to a golden brown. This All-American Cherry Pie with Crumb Topping is the perfect dessert, nostalgic to me, in that it reminds me of a dessert choice you’d order at a diner.

Make yourself a cherry crumb pie and see for yourself! Once the filling is done, pour it into the prepared crust, top with the topping, and bake until golden. If you don’t have almond extract, or don’t care for the flavor, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. A small amount of salt cuts through the sweet and really brings out the cherries’ flavor. Without the lemon, I find the filling to taste a bit muddy. Lemon brightens the flavor of the cherries, which is necessary when you’re baking with a fruit that’s naturally really sweet. Here’s a little tutorial if you go that route.Īfter you pit your cherries, mix the filling ingredients together.ĭon’t omit the lemon juice in your filling. You can also use a pastry tip to pit your cherries but I’ve never been able to get that method to work well. The edges of the bowl catch the splashes of juice and save your countertops. I use a cherry pitter to pit my cherries because it’s so much easier than any other method I’ve tried.īaker’s tip: pitting cherries is messy so I hold the pitter and the cherry in the bottom of a deep bowl. This probably goes without saying but the first step to making your filling is pitting the cherries. When making your filling, only add 1/3 cup of sugar to start, then taste to see how sweet the mixture is.
This pie calls for sweet cherries rather than tart ones because tart cherries are next to impossible to find fresh where I live.īaker’s tip: sweet cherries are REALLY sweet, which is why cherry pies are often made with tart cherries. Mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt together, then stir in melted butter until the mixture forms crumbs. To make the pie, you’ll start by making the crumb topping. The crumb topping is quick to make and adds a huge flavor and texture boost.This pie uses fresh cherries and minimal ingredients so the fruit is the star.The ice cream on top is optional but highly recommended 🙂 The cinnamon in the crumb topping and the almond in the filling complement the cherries so well it’s summer and heaven and happiness all in one bite.
