If you like cherries like I do, you will love this dessert. Served with vanilla ice cream it is a bit hit!
Cherry Crisp
1/2 C. Sugar
1/4 C. + 3 Tbsp. Flour
6 C. Pitted Frozen Cherries, thawed
1 C. Quick-cooking Oatmeal
1/2 C. Brown Sugar
1/4 C. Butter, softened
1/2 C. Sliced Almonds
Combine sugar, 3 Tbsp. of flour and cherries. Put this mixture in a greased 13 x 9 pan. Mix the oats, brown sugar and flour. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or pulse very lightly in a Cuisinart until crumbly. Stir in almonds and sprinkle evenly over the cherry mixture. Bake until hot and bubble for about 30 minutes.
I like a lot more topping than most people. I doubled the above topping recipe and used 2-3 bags of frozen cherries.
