Ingredients (Serves 6–8):

For the filling:

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen pitted cherries (or 1 can cherry pie filling)
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (skip if using pie filling)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (only if using fresh/frozen cherries)

For the topping:

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.

2. Prepare the cherry filling:
If using fresh or frozen cherries, combine them in a saucepan with sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Simmer over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until thickened. If using canned cherry pie filling, skip this step.

3. Make the crumble topping:
In a bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in melted butter until crumbly.

4. Assemble the dessert:
Spread the cherry mixture evenly in the baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the cherries.
