“Great recipe, I ended up adding blackberries to it because my bag of cherries were about 5 cups instead of 6 but it turned out great regardless. Can't imagine cherry pie without the almond extract and an oat crumble now!” — a cook, 5.0★
“I made this pie with just picked cherries from our tree on the Fourth of July. My husband said it was the best pie I’ve ever made! I served it with a dollop of Cool Whip on top.” — a cook, 5.0★
