"This just didn't do it for us. The ratio of the dried cherries to the apples seemed off, and 1/4 cup of flour too much. If I was to make this again I would add another couple of cups of apples--the ch..." See moreerries would then be a nice accent rather than dominating the pie--we could barely taste the apples. With the amount of cherries and apples kept as written, however, the flour should be reduced to just a couple of tablespoons."

"This pie turned out wonderful. The only change that is needed is in the cooking temperature. Bake at 425 for ten minutes then lower it to 350 for one hour...." See more"
