BING CHERRY DESSERT RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°.
• To prepare the filling, combine cherries, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, juice, almond extract, and salt in a large bowl; toss gently. Spoon cherry mixture into an 11 x 7–inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
• To prepare topping, lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in chilled butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in sliced almonds. Sprinkle oat mixture evenly over cherry mixture. Bake at 375° for 45 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping is crisp. Let stand 5 minutes; serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• In mixing bowl, combine cherries, flour and sugar; toss to coat evenly.
• Place in 8” square pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly.
• Meanwhile, sift flour into bowl; add baking powder, soda, and salt; and cut in chilled butter with pastry blender or 2 knives. When pea-sized texture, add buttermilk -all at once- stir just to blend.
• DO NOT OVERMIX; dough will be tough.
• When cherries are finished baking, remove from oven, drop dough by large spoonsful over cherries, and sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar.
• Return to oven for 25-30 minutes or until topping is done and golden brown.
• Serve hot or cool with whipped cream.
