Fresh Cherry Pie

For crust (mind you, this is for ONE crust. If you want top AND bottom, then double this, which is what I did.)

1 1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 t salt
3 T ice water

Mix together flour and salt. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles peas. Add the ice water and mix with a fork until it holds together a bit. Gather it up in a ball and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the cherry filling.

3 cups pitted, fresh ripe tart red cherries
1 to 1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
dash salt

Mix this together.

Roll out half of the dough on a floured surface to about a 1/8" thickness. Place in 8 inch pie plate. Put the cherry filling inside.

If you want to do the lattice top, I'm sure you can figure it out. You're a smart person. But if you can't, I'm sure there are countless resources on the internet for you. The directions I had were useless and I just ended up figuring it out on my own anyway.

Bake 50-55 minutes at 400 degrees.
Enjoy!
