Crazy Crust Cherry Pie
A pie crust like no other and you don’t even need a rolling pin. This one you have to try because it is the easiest and quickest pie I have ever made not to mention delicious. I topped it off with a drizzle of icing which made it even better.
Recipe adapted from http://www.AllRecipes.com.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour,
sugar, baking powder and salt.
Add the butter, milk and egg.
Using a mixer, beat until mixed well.
You will still see small bits of the
butter in the batter once mixed.
Spray a 9” pie dish with cooking oil.
Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish.
Using a spoon drop the cherry pie filling
evenly onto the center of the batter, trying to
keep it about 1” from the edge and do not stir.
Bake in a preheated 375º oven for 35-40 minutes
or until golden brown on top then let cool.
Drizzle with your favorite icing or serve without
icing. I used confectioner’s sugar and added just
enough milk to make a drizzling consistency.

That looks so so good. I was just thinking of cherry filling yesterday within the context of cheesecake. And the drizzled icing on top is a nice touch! 👍
What you mean cheesecake makes abs? Now it’s going on my list too! 🤣😂🤣 But seriously, thank you Ab!
The only thing that comes from eating cheesecake is a one-pac. Not what I need. 😆
It’s a magic pie!
It really tasted like magic! 😂
Love this recipe. It is just in time for autumn.
Yes and you can use apple pie filling if you want instead of cherry.
Interesting. I’ve made pies where the fruit is on the bottom and the batter is poured over but not this way with the fruit on top. Looks great!
It tasted great and there was the crust under all of the fruit pie filling. It was seriously so good and if you leave the icing off it won’t be as sweet.😉
Brilliant – I need to make this!
I made this for family ad they devoured it. Thank you Tierney!
That was easy and looks delicious Diane
Sheree this tasted fabulous. Never in my wildest dreams did I think this would taste like this. My husband informed me not to lose the recipe! Lol Tank you❤️
I’ll have to give it a go
LOOKS YUMMILICOUS! Our church makes pies as a fund raising project every year. This year I helped… The second time, I was asked to help roll out the crust. I have made several pies in my life, but the older ladies were quick to point out the way it should be done… We have made several hundred cherry and apple and have a few more apple to make. Then it’s on to peach. 🙂 Thanks for sharing this recipe!
There is nothing better than buying baked goods from churches and that is a lot of pies! In 2 weeks I am going to a church to purchase their apple dumplings. Now you know I could make them myself, however, this is my annual treat! Thank you
I do the same. I had to buy one of those apple pies for $15!!!
SO worth it!
Delicious!
Thank you it was even delicious the next day. My husband moaned the entire time he ate it. Lol
When a recipe mention no need for a rolling pin, I’m happy to bake! Looks delicious Diane, I’m sure we’ll enjoy this one 🥧!

This looks SO GOOD!!! Cherry pie is a particular weakness of mine, and this one looks like a new addiction… 😉
My mom made this and loved it. She had to call me and tell me she will be making this again. It really is delicious.

That does look super tasty. But, but… CANNED cherry pie filling?! 😉
Oh geeze and I thought you were by friend! Maybe I put the canned cherry pie filling for the people that didn’t know how to make their own! 🤣😂🤣
