Cherry Pie Filling |
Popping cherries right off a bowl never fully satiates me as the only flavours I get are sweet or sour, aside from them nothing much.
Last week I posted a recipe for Cherry Vodka, which I intend to use in a Black-forest cake. But one needs to fill the layers too right?
Without further banter then, here's a simple cherry filling recipe.
Fill in your cakes or pies, layer it over your morning toasts or have it right off the spoon it tastes lovely.
Do try while the short lived cherry season is on.
Toodles...
Yield: 4 cups.
You will need:
2/3 cup sugar1/4 cup cornstarch (cornflour)
