This cherry pie filling is quick and simple plus it’s so much better than any of the canned stuff! I used fresh Bing cherries in mine but you can even use frozen ones and make this all year long🍒 Perfect for cherry pie, cake filling, on top of cheesecake, over ice cream, and many more pastries and desserts!
