Simple Cherry Pie!

Simple Cherry Pie
Serves about 8

this is sooo good! not sure where i got it from, but you can also use apples or peaches in place of the cherries.

4 c Cherries, well drained
1 t vanilla
1/4 c white sugar
2 T cornstarch
Half pkg frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 egg, lightly beaten

In large bowl, stir cherries with vanilla. In another bowl, stir sugar with cornstarch; stir into cherries until blended.

On lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into thin 14-inch circle. (Edges will not be even.) Lift onto ungreased baking sheet. Spoon cherry mixture into centre; gently fold up edges of pastry to partially cover the filling, leaving centre uncovered. Brush pastry with egg. Bake on rack below centre of 400°F oven until pastry is golden and filling is bubbly, about 40 minutes. Let cool before cutting.
You can also drizzle a bit of pd sugar icing over the top or serve with whip cream.
