Ingredients
-
1 (14.1 ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts
-
1 pound fresh sweet cherries, pitted
-
2 tablespoons minute tapioca
-
1/3 cup sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
-
1 pinch salt
-
1/2 cup whipped cream, or as needed (optional)
-
grated chocolate as needed for garnish (optional)
Directions
-
Place pie crusts on a lightly floured surface and roll out each crust with a rolling pin, so it is large enough to cut three 5 to 5-1/2-inch circles, for a total of 6 tart crusts.
-
Fit each dough circle into a 4-inch removable-bottom tart pan. Press the dough against the sides of the pans, and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Remove any excess dough by running the rolling pin across the top of each pan.
-
Refrigerate tart crusts until well chilled, about 45 minutes, keeping them refrigerated until ready to use.
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
-
In a large bowl, combine cherries, tapioca, sugar, almond extract, and salt. Remove the pans from the fridge and distribute cherry mixture evenly among the tart pans. Place the pans on a baking sheet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until cherries are soft and crust is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
