Ingredients

  • One 14-ounce package all-butter puff pastry, thawed and chilled
  • 2 cups cherries, pitted and coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350.
  • Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the puff pastry on parchment paper to a 14-by-12-inch rectangle and cut into eight 3-by-3 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Transfer the parchment paper to a baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the cherries with the sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and cinnamon.
  • Brush the pastry edges of the rectangles with the beaten egg wash.
  • Mound the filling in the center of each pastry and fold the dough over; press to seal and crimp decoratively.
  • Brush the pies with beaten egg and make a small slit in the top of each one.
  • Bake for 40 minutes, until golden.
