Fred, if you're making a double crust pie, then you would bake the cherry pie for approximately 50 to 60 minutes at 400 degrees F (200 C). If the top crust seems to be browning too quickly, place aluminum foil loosely over the top after 20 or 30 minutes of baking and continue to bake pie for 20 to 30 more minutes or until fruit is bubbly.

Good Luck, Diana
