Easy Steps to Bake Pre-Made Cherry Pie

Are you craving a delicious cherry pie but don’t have the time to make it from scratch? No worries! With a pre-made cherry pie, you can still enjoy a homemade taste without all the hassle. Follow these simple steps to bake a pre-made cherry pie to perfection.

Ingredients You'll Need:

  • Pre-made cherry pie
  • Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water)
  • Sugar (for sprinkling)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Remove the pre-made cherry pie from its packaging and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Using a pastry brush, gently brush the top crust of the pie with the egg wash. This will give the pie a beautiful golden color as it bakes.
  4. Using a sharp knife, make a few small slits in the top crust of the pie. This will allow steam to escape while the pie bakes, preventing it from becoming soggy.
  5. Sprinkle a little sugar over the top crust of the pie. This will add a touch of sweetness and a bit of crunch to the finished pie.
  6. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  7. Once the pie is done baking, carefully remove it from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
