There is something deeply satisfying about a cherry pie that lets the fruit do the talking. Four cups of cherries cook down into a glossy, ruby filling, thickened just enough with cornstarch so every slice holds its shape without turning to jam. A whisper of almond extract, if you add it, plays up that classic cherry sweetness. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla and watch it disappear.

Directions
- Place cherries in medium saucepan and place over heat and cover.
- After the cherries lose considerable juice, which may take a few minutes, remove from heat.
- In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cornstarch together.
- Pour this mixture into the hot cherries and mix well.
- Add the almond extract, if desired, and mix.
- Return the mixture to the stove and cook over low heat until thickened, stirring frequently.
- Remove from the heat and let cool.
- If the filling is too thick, add a little water, too thin, add a little more cornstarch.
- Preheat the oven to 375F Bake for about 50 minutes
