Claire Saffitz Makes Cherry Pie | Dessert Person

[@CSaffitz]

Thank you for all the birthday wishes! Now for a dessert question, what is your favorite kind of pie?

[@nomadicmind6800]

Apple pie and happy birthday.

[@persondessert9366]

peach mango pie!!! happy birthday 😘😘😘

[@ereed442]

Love blueberry pie. 💙 Happy birthday Claire 🎂

I live for an apple pie with either vanilla ice cream or custard! Happy Bday!

It's the rocking chair for me. It almost feels like she's about to read a story to a room full of kids. It's kinda cute.

For some reason, it was absolutely pleasant to sit through the ad, and I wouldn’t say that about many ads.

Hearing Claire talk about pies reminds me of that time she got super stressed over some random county fair pie contest.

Claire sitting on a rocking chair, petting her cat while wearing a cat t-shirt is my spirit animal

[@surprisebetch]

I would love to see Claire do something with potatoes. Hearing her talk about her love of potatoes is *chef’s kiss* the best. The g*****t m***s episode for tater tots is just the best. Would love to see her do something like that on her own terms.

I'm an absolute disaster in the kitchen, but seeing Claire cook, since her days at BA, brings me overwhelming peace and joy, even if I know I'll never try to recreate her recipes at home

[@Mmarie1234561]

you should try for real :) my father in-law got me her book for Christmas last year and I've done so many of her recipes I never thought I could do! Like croissants, focaccia, tarte tatin and her apple tart :D I tried much more but these were the highlights ahah!! This christmas = cherry tart :D

[@SMorrisRose]

I've made hundreds of cherry pies over the last 50 years, and still learned something from this one, particularly with how to manage the crust. Nice work.

[@gakera]

I need a chicken update! How's the coop going and when will we see more recipes from that location?

[@Fitzroy17]

I made this pie for Thanksgiving dinner last year and my family loved it! For the pie crust, I have a sister and a niece who both have celiac, so I used gluten free measure-for-measure flour and it turned out beautifully!

[@Einteil_]

Thank you for this! I was wondering how to make it gf

[@Fitzroy17]

@@Einteil_ It was really easy! I used King Arthur GF measure-for-measure flour and followed all the other directions exactly.

[@maravm818]

Oh my, thank you for this comment! I have caeliac and as soon as I saw flour and almond flour I thought "hmm I wonder if gf flour would work?" :D

[@vcross05]

Happy Birthday, Claire!

Happy birthday Claire 🎂🍰 i waited so long for this recipe LOVE THE COOK BOOK!!!!!

[@comettripper]

I think it's so wholesome she starts almost every video with "this is my favorite recipe" ♡♡ It makes sense she loves all the recepies so much and I feel happy to see her being excited about it

[@wohdinhel]

i am so mad that felix’s presence successfully made me sit through an entire ad read

[@miseentrope]

Seeing Felix at 1:05 gave me the same feels as when a person checks in on my wellness: *knowing they are well enough to be present boosts me be more present for others* Thanks Claire and Felix and team and sponsors. 😺 and HBC 🥳

[@hnglbanana]

can we get a list of every recipe claire has said is her favourite recipe from dessert person? or would that just be every recipe she's filmed so far? 😂

[@IraRafols]

literally thooooo she is so cute

[@tomuchcamoflauge]

If they made it into the book it means they are probably all the favourite recipe from dessert person

[@constantsong]

Would love a montage

[@SunaAoimori]

that would be her cookbook

[@AllegraVivace]

Love that this video is a demo for the real version of the cartoon cherry pie that's at the end of the episodes.

[@nathaliej3768]

😭😭

[@maravm818]

Claire baking the childhood recipe that makes her the happiest is so wholesome and I'm so happy for her! Happy birthday from Germany 💖

[@alexinarose5344]

The lattice and crimping demo was so satisfying to watch. Great video. Happy birthday!!

[@IraRafols]

Happy Birthday to my favorite dessert person!! Continue being a ray of sunshine to all of us Claire!

[@misscutenar2333]

for some reason the pre intro, with her dropping the bag and just laughing about it, just made me realize how stressed she always seemed on gourmet makes, how she would've almost definitely been very upset about just dropping that bag, at least if it was after the halfway mark of the video. I am so glad that Claire now gets to work in an environment that she determines herself and that does not force her to be that stressed or unhappy

[@kettlestar]

I never throw away extra pie crust. We make what my grandma called cinnamon yitchies, by putting butter, cinnamon, and sugar on the pieces and rolling them up like a crescent roll. Bake with the pie and you have something to eat so you aren't as tempted to cut into the pie too soon.

[@leaflover3497]

Claire, I think this was one of your best episodes. I’ve been baking for many years, but never had the best results with fruit pies. They always turn out to runny. I never thought about keeping the fruit frozen to reduce the juice.

[@beccae1995]

You can also do the lattice ahead on a cake round or flat plate and chill it. If it stays cold, you can slide the entire woven lattice as a whole onto the top of the pie. This helps avoid any of the fruit filling from getting where you don’t want it.

[@DarleneMW]

You know I love watching Claire because I absolutely detest eating HOT fruit. I don’t like peach cobbler, hot apple pie, etc. I know I will never make this, BUT I really love watching Claire bake.

[@lindsey8243]

Same, I hate any tiny bit of sour so I’ll never touch sour cherry. But here I am

[@stil143]

I’m with you.

[@johnc.325]

This is the correct opinion.

[@jeff__w]

I hate eating hot fruit also (as did the great English mathematician G. H. Hardy who subscribed to the view, as stated by someone else, that “a man who will eat a _hot_ fruit pie is unfit for decent society”-presumably he would have included women as well). That said, I’d just wait and eat it at room temperature.

[@000euMJ]

Same. Except bananas.

[@LowCommitmentASMR]

For anyone planning to make this recipe: the video omits the vanilla extract. The description and her book both say to use 2 tsp of vanilla. Just add it in at the same time as the almond extract!

[@M_Ladd]

That is way too much vanilla. The almond pairs well with cherries. No vanilla is needed, or else she would have stated so.

[@FloralApronBlog]

Aww, 9-year old Claire and her sister hanging out their second floor window for sour cherries is such a fun background!

[@MrCruelbaker]

Claire!!! Happy birthday! Thanks for making baking fun! I’ve been baking along with you for the last year and a half. Dessert Person is a wonderful resource.

I'm glad that Claire is thriving

[@zdenekkrystof2631]

Let's just all agree that when Claire does her intro we hear: "This is one of my favourite recipes, from Desser Person" aka it's her fave recipe and that's why she included it in the book. Loved the video!

[@rosaleenraposa6594]

Watching Clair gives me confidence when I'm baking and she has amazing tips.

[@heretic3334]

HAPPY BDAY CLAIREEEEE! :D You always make my week so so so much sweeter and I really can’t express how much of a needed positive energy you are for me 🥰 All the best and good health for you!!!

[@lucyw3270]

Favorite pie: apple or my great grandmother's chocolate pie recipe. Also I never worry about "throwing away" too much pastry because raw, homemade pie dough is so good!!!

[@TheThreebucks]

Claire, I got a new kitchen with an island and a designated baking equipment cabinet in August 2020 only to figure out that I had developed Long Covid. I can’t do all the baking I long to do on that island but I think I’ve got everything I need except a stand mixer. So when I feel better, and I hope that day will come, I am going to make this cherry pie, because cherry pie is my favorite, too. In the meantime, I’ll be watching you bake. I’m going through your videos chronologically. Thank you for bringing us into your kitchen, which is a very happy place.

[@remariegabutan1452]

Happy birthday, Claire! 🥳

[@pianoforte611]

Finally made it. Fantastic pie, probably the best fruit pie I've ever had. Sweet, quite tart, with some warm spice notes in the background. The texture is perfect, it moist - neither runny nor stiff. I used frozen sour cherries and while I love sour desserts, I would probably add a bit more sugar next time, especially if I'm making it for company. And I think I would add a touch more spice - but that's purely personal preference.

[@edithputhie8987]

Happy birthday Claire! Thanks for making our Thursdays infinitely better

[@uncool13]

Oh I’m so dead, Claire making my favorite pie cherry!! Now I’m going to be craving it for days. Claire is THE dessert person. Happy happy birthday 🎊🎉🎂🎁🎈 I think we need to pass the hat to get Claire a bigger fridge seriously working with such a small fridge must be torture hee hee

[@VailsMom]

I also grew up in Missouri, and at one of the houses we lived in growing up, there was a small family orchard with several kinds of fruit trees: apple, apricot, peach, pear, and one marvelous sour cherry tree in the side yard. My mother made pies and froze them so that we could have fruit pie in the winter. The sour cherry pie reminds me, like Claire, of my childhood, and is my favorite pie. The difficult part now is finding even frozen sour cherries. I may have to ask my local store if they can order them. Thanks for the memories, Claire!

[@annie6515]

Omg love the purring at the end. Nice touch!

[@persondessert9366]

claire explaining that the pie is still fine even with the smoke of the burning juice is how i would describe freeloaders tbh

[@gloriouslyimperfect]

Fridge and freezer Jenga is always my favorite part of the episodes ;)

[@wellhello795]

Delicious! Used mixed frozen berries - sour and sweet cherries and blueberries. Total bake time was 2.5 hours. Came out perfect! Will be more patient next time and let it fully COOL before cutting so filling will set. Thanks again, Claire!

[@jonasmurdoch3119]

Please, please make a video about how you made you cookbook!

Coconut cream from my favorite Thai restaurant . Hope you had a great birthday !!

[@dianewhittington8179]

I will join in the chorus of birthday wishes! Happy birthday Claire and thank you for making my all-time favourite pie!! My mom always made both kinds - because 1/2 the family LOVED sour cherry pie and the other half loved sweet cherry pie. Clearly we ate both but sour cherry pie will always be my favourite!!

[@kruserandalla]

Challenge for Claire: I'm allergic to both nuts and eggs, what do I bake (or no-bake)? Lovely video as always!

[@livingwithlife]

I'm sure you know this already but applesauce is a really good substitution for eggs and usually one snack portion of applesauce equals 2 eggs (Souce: my vegan roommate)

[@littlenikke]

Not Claire, but for this recipe you could easily make regular pie crust (no almond flour), skip the almond extract, use cream instead of an egg wash. Done! (I am allergic to almonds, so have done her almond-free version of the pie crust: it is excellent)

[@gene9230]

​I think she has some recipe where she substitutes egg white with chickpeas and also the breakfast muffin is vegan: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqnGnYejfLd4irM

[@toin9898]

Oh man I made a sour-cherry and lime pie a couple of weeks ago and It Was. So. Good. Segmented citrus in pie filling is a game changer that I highly recommend if you're not into super duper sweet pies.

[@jessicamayne3394]

We have a sour cherry tree that produces gallons and gallons of cherries. I always have the issue (if I don’t cook the cherries down to a jam and prebake the crust) of a soggy bottom. I love your tip of baking for 20 min at 425 and then baking it at 350 for 2 hours and then letting the pie sit for a whole day. Thank you Claire!!
