55 min

4 cups Flathead cherries, pitted
1 cup sugar (1 1/4 cups for sour cherries)
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie


Mix ingredients for filling.
Place in pastry-lined pie pan.
Put top crust on. Cut vent slits in top crust, and flute edges.
Brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake at 425'F for 25 minutes, reduce heat to 350'F and bake for 25-30 minutes more.

TIP: put sugar, flour and cinnamon in a large zip-loc bag. Add the cherries and toss to coat. This coats them more even than doing it in a bowl and the filling is firmer.
Food can definitely make or break a vacation. If you are traveling to Northwest Montana, you are in luck, because the variety of offerings ensures flavors for everyone to enjoy.

Whether you are dining out, eating in, or trying your hand at campfire gourmet, the communities around Glacier National Park offer many memorable adventures in taste!
 

 FEATURE STORIES
Featured Dining Out Adventure in Food
Prepare yourself for a real treat at the Culinary Design Studio in Bigfork, where the evening is an intimate delight savoring the thoughtful creations of Chef/Owner Josh Auerhammer.

Local Brews
Sample some local character by visiting our local breweries. The company is always lighthearted and friendly , the views unbeatable, and the beer's not too shabby, either.

 
Cafe Kandahar, not to missed
Enjoy the complex, layered flavors of one of the best restaurants in the Flathead Valley, Cafe Kandahar, located on Big Mountain in Whitefish. Guaranteed to please!

 

Berries Cherries and local good eats
This part of the country is known for its Flathead Cherries and wild huckleberries. Cherries are easily picked at U Pick stands dotting the orchards that line Flathead Lake. Huckleberry picking, on the other hand, provides some challenges, since bears (and human locals) enjoy them too!
 

Point of Rocks
North of Whitefish on the way to the Canadian border is Point of Rocks, a local's favorite for no-nonsense good food at good prices.
