Ingredients

  • 6 8-oz. Mason jars

  • 3 tablespoons corn starch
  • 4 cups frozen cherries
  • 1 box refrigerated pie crust
  • Garnishes: sanding sugar, melted butter, whipped cream

  2. Roll out pie crust dough and cut in half. Line inside of one jar with one half of rolled out dough. Repeat with remaining jars and pie crust dough.
