13 ingredients
7 steps

Ingredients

  • Crust
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • Filling
  • 4 cups tart cherries, with pits and stems removed
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Topping
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. 2
    In a small mixing bowl, combine crust ingredients with a fork until mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a standard pie plate, using the back of a spoon or fingers.
  3. 3
    Combine filling ingredients in a large mixing bowl; set aside until juice begins to form (Note: If the cherries are especially juicy, add more cornstarch for thickening. Otherwise, the pie filling will not set up well). Pour cherry mixture into crust.
  4. 4
    In a small mixing bowl, combine topping ingredients until butter is thoroughly incorporated. With fingers, crumble atop cherry filling.
  5. 5
    Bake for 45-60 minutes or until topping is crispy and brown, and filling is bubbly.
  6. 6
    To allow the pie filling to set up well, cool for at least two hours on a wire rack.
  7. 7
    Cut into eight slices to serve. If desired, garnish each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
