Easy Shredded Pie with Cherries Recipe

This pie was a signature recipe of my Grandmother Maria, today would be her birthday, so I decided to bake this pie for the first time in my life. I ate it hundreds of times, but never thought that this deliciousness is so simple to cook.

Sift flour, add 1 cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of baking powder, mix everything very well.
Shred the butter and mix it with the flour-sugar-baking powder. In a separate bowl mix: egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon of sour cream (or mayo), add vanilla extract. Form a batter, split the batter in proportion 2/3 and 1/3. Put it in a fridge for 15-20 minutes.
Preheat the stove to 350 degrees F., grease the baking dish, take the batter and spread 2/3 of batter over the baking dish. (It's very tender, so I was spread it with my hands.)
Filling: take the filling you are planning to use, I'm using cherries, (can use jam or berries, anything) spread over the batter and shred the1/3 of batter over the filling. (So your pie would look like a curly pie.)
Bake the pie for 20-25 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
Enjoy! (I enjoyed it a lot.)
