Fresh sour cherries are only in season for a short stint in early summer, but they are worth seeking out for their intense tart flavor. If you can't find fresh sour cherries, use frozen or jarred fruits. Be sure to defrost if frozen and drain if jarred. These individual pot pies, made with thawed store-bought puff pastry, are ideal for a small gathering, including special occasions. Serve them as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
