Tart Cherry Crumble Pie
This cherry crumble pie is so good and yummy. We used our pie crust recipe and some delicious tart Michigan cherries we froze to use throughout the year.
This is a perfect dessert to take with you to a party, or make just because you love cherries.
We love to have a cherry, pumpkin and apple pie during the holidays. (and sometimes just because a pumpkin roll)
Tart Cherry Pie Tips
- If you are using a store bought pie crust, reduce the amount of cherries by 1 cup
- I prefer using a homemade pie crust in a Pyrex deep dish to hold the pie with less leaking.
- Use a baking sheet under your pie while cooking as it will leak out and cause a mess in your oven if you don’t.
- Use a spatula to separate the pie tin from the baking sheet before it cools.
- You can also use a baking rack instead so it doesn’t have a flat surface to cook on.
- Instead of cutting the butter by hand, use a food processor, it goes quicker.
- You can also use a cheese grater to cut the butter into pieces.
- If you love this, you just might also enjoy cherry cobbler.

- Place the pie onto a backing sheet and then place into the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
- When the crumb topping starts to turn brown, turn the oven down to 350.

Notes
If you like cherry pie, you may want to try our apple pie recipe.
Are the flour and corn starch reversed in the ingredients? You have flour in the cherry mix and corn starch in the crumble. I think these are reversed but I’m not sure how much of each to add when I fix that mix up?
Sorry about that! It’s fixed.
Thank you! Can’t wait to make this!!

It was Veronica. The crumb topping was to die for.
Oh wow, this looks so good. I love cherry pie 🙂
It is one of my favorites too, next to Apple and Pumpkin.
Me too. It was delicious.
This looks yummy. I love cherry, my family loves apples, I can probably substitues apple filling instead of the cherry filling.
You can definitely use the fruit that your family loves most to make this pie!
that looks so good
That looks good. I’m not really a cherry pie fan. I guess other fruit can be used in place.
You could definitely put any fruit in there you want to make a pie. I just have canned cherries.
