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)

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.
