Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, March 3, 2014

By Darlene Bowers

The perfect pie for a cold winter day: Icon Almond-Cherry Pie

Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, March 2, 2014

Icon Almond-Cherry Pie

2 cups frozen sour cherries
1 cup slivered almonds
1/3 cup white flour
½ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
1 pie shell
