Crust
1
box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

4
oz marzipan (about 1/3 cup)
3
tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1/2
cup old-fashioned oats
2
tablespoons Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
Filling
2
cans (21 oz each) cherry pie filling
1/4
teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. Make 1 pie crust as directed on box for One-Crust Baked Shell using 9-inch glass pie plate. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or just until set but not brown.
  • 2 Meanwhile, in small bowl, place marzipan and butter; with pastry blender or fork, mix until well blended. Stir in oats and flour until crumbly. In large bowl, mix filling ingredients.
  • 3 Remove partially baked shell from oven. Spread filling in shell. Crumble topping over filling.

Expert Tips

Marzipan is a mixture of almond paste, sugar and egg whites. It adds a crumbly texture and almond flavor to the pie topping.

Look for marzipan and almond paste in the baking section of the grocery store.

Perfect cherry pie! Not too tart, perfect amount of almond. Really yummy. I even sprinkled some sliced almonds over the pie and it was great. This was the first pie I''ve ever made and everyone thought it was delicious. I tried not to add too much of the syrup and reserved about a cup and a half and it turns out very slicable and not messy. Will make over and over again!

I made this pie with a pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving dinner this year, and it was a hit! Everyone loved it, even people that do not usually like cherry pie! My family said that this recipe was not tart like other cherry pies! I am assuming the less tart is from adding the almond extract! The almond crumble was delicious! An easy way to make a quick cherry pie! Another thing, it was the first cherry pie I had ever made! Love Betty Crocker recipes!
