Freezing Sour Cherries

Just a little bit of summer fun...

Freezing Cherries:
-Wash, then pit cherries ( we use a mechanical pitter) and drain excess juice.
- Lay out on a cookie sheet in a single layer.
-Place in freezer overnight.
-Remove from freezer and let sit a few minutes until able to break apart.
-Scoop up cherries (we used a metal spatula), throw into a labeled freezer bag, and freeze!

Substitute these for fresh cherries in recipes, plop some into a smoothie, or chop up some for Auntie J's Breakfast Cake!
