500g ready made puff pastry
200ml double cream
300ml full fat milk
4 egg yolks
125g caster sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons custard powder
plain flour for dusting
400g fresh or frozen cherries, pitted
Milk, for glazing
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1
For the custard filling: Place the cream and milk in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Place the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla extract and custard powder in a large bowl and whisk together until smooth.
2
Pour the hot milk and cream over the egg mixture whisking continuously. Leave to cool.
3
Preheat the oven to 200C/400f/gas 6. Place a baking sheet in the oven to preheat. Cut the puff pastry in half and roll one piece out on a lightly floured work surface until you have a rectangular sheet measuring 12 x 8 inches. Carefully place into a rectangular pan measuring 11 x 7 in and about 2 inches deep. Prick the base all over with a fork. Spread the cooled custard into the tin and then arrange the cherries on top.
4
Roll out the remaining piece of pastry to a 12x6-inch rectangle. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little milk and then lay the other sheet of pastry over the top of the filling and press down gently to seal.
5
Brush the top with more milk and sprinkle with the granulated sugar. Place the tin in the fridge to chill for 15 minutes.
6
Before placing in the oven make incisions in the pastry with a sharp knife to reveal the filling. Place the pie on the preheated baking tray and bake for 10 minutes then reduce the temperature to 325u00b0F/160u00b0C and continue to bake for a further 45 minutes until the pastry is golden and cooked through.
7
Leave to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan then serve warm or cold cut into squares.
