Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.75 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pitted cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir until the cherries are evenly coated and the mixture is slightly thickened. Pour the cherry mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients together until evenly distributed.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the cherry mixture in the baking dish, covering the cherries completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cherry filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cherry crisp from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
