Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup, plus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 6 cups pitted frozen cherries, thawed
- 1 cup quick-cooking oats
- 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13 by 9-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, combine the sugar and 3 tablespoons flour. Add the cherries, tossing gently to coat. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan.
In a medium bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, and remaining 1/4 cup flour. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in the almonds. Sprinkle evenly over the cherry mixture. Bake until hot and bubbly and the topping is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.

This was a GREAT recipe, delicious, healthy, and easy to prepare. I,too, used Splenda products instead of sugar, a smaller pan, and a half teaspoon of almond extract in the cherry mixture. This is best eaten the same day as the topping does lose its crispness after a day but then it is easy to eat the whole thing in one day. I just kept going back for another spoonful each time I passed thru the kitchen but luckily there was enough for guests that evening. This is definitely a go to recipe from now on.

Excellent - given the price of cherries, I used 3 cups cherries(1 bag frozen and some frozen blue berries and frozen rasberries ( I grow those in my garden and totaled 6 cups of fruit. I also baked it in a 9 x 9 pan for about 45 minutes. Serve over vanilla frozen yogurt, or for breakfast over plain greek yogurt. YUMMY! Still has the cherry presence.
