Cherry Bourbon Pie

Two of my husband's favorite things - Cherry pie and Bourbon. I thought a nice Valentine's surprise. But really, how can you go wrong with that combo? Came across this in Bon Appetit. Rather than make one big pie (this recipe makes a lot of filling, you could probably get 2 pies out of it), I decided to make individual pies. I added sliced almonds to the recipe and an egg wash to bind the layers of pie crust together. Had to search around a bit for the cherries, but finally found them at Trader Joe's. They were inexpensive, but will try this again when fresh cherries are readily available. Warm with ice cream? Yum!
