CHERRY PIE 
3 cans (approx. 16 oz.) Comstock Cherry Pie Filling (It will state Ruby Red on the can.)
butter
Pastry
Cinnamon

Prepare pastry as noted below. Butter baking dish (one you would use for a cobbler). The one I use is 9 1/2 x 13 1/2 x 2 inch. After dish is buttered, line with pastry on the bottom and press as much as you can against the sides.

In a mixing bowl mix cherries with about 1/2 cup sugar. Pour cherry mixture into prepared pastry; add pats of butter on top of the cherry mixture. Then cut the rest of your dough into strips to strip the pie. Brush melted butter across the finished pie and sprinkle sugar then cinnamon on top. Bake about 50 to 60 minutes at 350 degrees or until the pie has browned.

PASTRY:

1 c. shortening
3 c. flour
3/4 tsp. salt
3 pinches baking powder
Milk

This amount will make two single crust pies or 1 double crust pie, or a cobbler.
