Fresh Cherry Pie Filling

These are a couple of recipes to make my homemade filling from all the cherries from our tree. Both are excellent! Recipe 1 5-6 cups fresh pitted cherries (2-3 lbs) 1/2 cup water 1-1/4 cups sugar 4 Tbs cornstarch In a saucepan, combine all ingredients, bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes. Cool slightly before using. Recipe 2 2 cups fresh pitted cherries 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup sugar 2 TBS cornstarch In a saucepan, cook cherries in water for 10 minutes. Mix together sugar and cornstarch, add to cherries. Cook mixture until thickened. Cool slightly before using.
