Cherry season is here and we have lots of cherries that we picked from the trees in the cherry farm. So we decided to make a dessert out of the cherries!
This dessert is very light as compared to a cherry pie or cherry cobbler. It is a perfect dessert for a summer evening.
We usually enjoy this as it is, but it is more delicious with a scoop of our homemade vanilla ice cream.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients:
4 cups fresh pitted cherries
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/3 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions:
In a bowl, combine the flour and baking powder.
Add in the vanilla, egg and sugar to the flour.
Mix to form a crumbly mixture.
Take a 9''x13'' baking pan, grease it with butter and spread the out cherries in the pan.
Sprinkle the flour on top of cherries, not completely covering them, leaving space here and there.
Drizzle the melted butter on top of the crisp and bake for 40 minutes at 400ºF.
Enjoy warm.
Notes:
We used fresh cherries but frozen works well too ,just thaw them beforehand.
You can serve this with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
