Homemade Cherry Pie Filling

4 cups cherries, rinsed, stemmed and pitted
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1.. Combine cherries, sugar and lemon juice in a mixing bowl, stir and let
sit for at least 6 hours, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. Drain off
and reserve cherry syrup.
2.. Combine a small amount of syrup to cornstarch to make a paste, then
whisk cornstarch paste back into syrup. Pour mixture into a saucepan and
cook over medium heat, stirring, until the sauce thickens. Stir in the
drained cherries and almond extract.
3.. Cool, and store in sterilized, airtight jars or freeze in heavy
freezer bags.
Makes about 5 cups.
