Ground Cherry Pie

Shell and wash the ground cherries. (I had a walmart bag full)

Create pie crust using 1 cup flour, 1 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt. Cut in 1/3 cup shortening.
Sprinkle about 3 tbsp ice water and 1 tbsp vinegar over mix. 
Toss with fork to form dough ball.

Roll out just big enough to fit pie pan.

Crimp edges or press with fork.

Put 2 1/2 cups ground cherries in crust. Mix 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 tbsp flour.
Sprinkle over cherries.

Sprinkle with 2 tbsp water. 
Mix 3 tbsp flour, 3 tbsp sugar, and 2 tbsp butter til crumbly. 
Spread over all. 

Cover edges of pie.
Bake in preheated oven @ 425* for 15 min. 
Reduce heat to 375* and bake another 25 to 30 minutes.

Enjoy your pie!
