Cherry Pie Filling Recipe is a basic cherry sauce that is very easy to make and a delight to eat. Serve it with pancakes, crepes, cottage cheese or a pie.
Pit cherries and add them to a medium size sauce pot.
Pour the corn starch slurry into the cherries while quickly stirring and let cook for another several minutes, or until the sauce is thickened and the cornstarch flavor disappears (do not cook the sauce with the cornstarch slurry for longer than several minutes, or the sauce will thin back down). Stir in the lemon juice and the vanilla.
Allow to cool.
Add rum or brandy and vanilla extract and stir again. Store in a closed container in the fridge.
*If using tart or sour cherries, adjust the amount of sugar accordingly.
