Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Prepare the filling: In a bowl, thoroughly mix cherry jam and lemon juice.
  2. Prepare the pie dough: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease a 25cm (10-inch) fluted baking dish with a removable bottom. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a mixer on medium speed. Add the egg, then the vanilla, and beat until thickened. While continuing to beat, gradually add all the flours, lemon zest, cinnamon, and cloves, mixing until smooth. Reduce the speed and pour in 1 tablespoon of water. Mix well.

  3. Divide the pie dough into 2 parts: place two-thirds on plastic wrap, folding the edges to form a ball, form the remaining one-third into a ball and place in the wrap, put both pieces in a cold place for 30 minutes to harden.
  4. To make cherry pie: Place most of the dough between two layers of parchment paper and roll it out into a 30cm diameter circle. Spread the pie dough, without the parchment paper, over the entire bottom and sides of the prepared pan, trimming off any excess dough. Then spread the cherry filling evenly.
  5. Roll out the remaining dough and cut into 1.5–2 cm wide strips. Place the strips crosswise on the pie and coat the edges and top with a mixture of egg yolk and 1 tbsp. water.
  6. Bake the cherry pie until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool after baking.
