Delicious Cherry Pie Recipe with Cream Topping

In a mixing bowl, combine the soft unsalted butter with the sugar and eggs. Mix them well until creamy.

Next, add the sour cream and gradually incorporate the flour and baking powder. You want to achieve a soft dough consistency.

Once the dough is ready, wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

In another bowl, combine the cherries, sugar, and cornstarch. Stir these ingredients together until the cherries are well coated.

Set the filling aside to allow the flavors to meld together.

Preheat your oven to 175 degrees Celsius (about 350 degrees Fahrenheit).

On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough until it’s thin enough to cover your pie dish.

Place the dough in the dish, pour in the cherry filling, and fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a rustic look.

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Once baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before adding the sour cream topping.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream and powdered sugar until smooth.

Pour this mixture over the warm pie, allowing it to spread evenly.

Let the pie cool completely before serving, so the topping can set properly.
