Personal Notes:
Notes: Cherry Pie is my favorite kind of pie, but no one else in my family likes it.

Canned fruit pies require less fruit than those made with fresh fruit because the fruit hsd been pre-cooked. To determine amount of sugar needed, look on label to see if fruit was packed in syrup. Use minimum sugar for fruit packed in syrup, maximum sugar for water-packed fruit. The proportion of fruit and juice in the same size can may vary with brand. Because of this, we measure fruit and juice separately. There are approximately 1-3/4 cup cherries and 1 cup juices in a 1 lb 4 oz can.
