This weeks Sweet Melissa Sunday included Melissa's favorite and best-selling pie,
Sour Cherry Pie with Pistachio Crumble. It was chosen by Michelle at Flour child.
I love Cherry pie so I was excited to make this from scratch.
The pie crust was simple and a recipe that I will make again.
I used 2 pounds of fresh cherries, I spent about an hour removing all the pits.
It took about the same amount of time to remove the pistachios from the shell and then to crush them. My Mother-in-law was here for the graduation day so I put her to work. 
The recipe said put the pie on the bottom third of the oven
The recipe said put the pie on the bottom third of the oven and put on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes.
However, my pie turned out a bit runny so I moved it up and
took it off the cookie sheet and then it set up.
We thought the topping was perfect and the pie was delicious!
