I wanted to make a pie for 'drop-in' company and didn't have enough ingredients with out running to the store...didn't want to do that. So as I checked the pantry and freezer I found a can of cherry pie filling and some bluebrries I cleaned and frozen a couple months earlier. Had to brainstorm quickly...so this is what I came up with. Was a huge hit, everyone loved it. If you give it a try I hope you like it...soooooooo easy. You can ofcourse use any combo of fruits that more easly fit your taste buds.

How To Make cin's "easy cherry-blueberry pie"

    I made enough pastry for a double crust pie (recipe link below). Warmed the canned cherry pie filling in a sauce pan on the stove, with the rum and lemon juice. Pour 1/2 of it into the pastry-crust you've put in bottom of pie plate. Sprinkled a layer of ''fresh frozen'' blueberries on top of cherry filling, then pour the other half of the cherry pie filling on top of the blueberries. Covered with a the other pastry crust, seal edges and crimp. Brush the liquid egg white over the top of crust and edges. Then I made some slits (also an ''S'' for my last name) on top crust and sprinkled sugar crystals on top. I used red & clear crystals. Baked pie at 425 dF for 30 minutes. Don't let edges get too dark or burn, cover edges if needed. OPTION: Serve hot or warm with vanilla ice cream. Easy as pie =;D & delish!!!
