Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Press the bottom pie crust into a lightly greased 9-inch pie pan.

Step 2

Combine cherries, sugar, flour, orange zest, orange juice, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.

Step 3

Place cherry mixture into the bottom pie crust and add butter in a few small dollops on the top. Place the top pie crust over in a woven lattice design or leave it whole, being sure to cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Step 4

Mix egg white and milk together in a small bowl and brush over the top of the pie.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until the top has a golden brown sheen, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool thoroughly before serving.
