TART CHERRY CRISP

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grab a square Pyrex or round deep dish glass pie plate. Grab a bowl. Into the bowl add the cherries, white sugar, extracts, lemon juice, tapioca or whatever you are using for thickening, and 1/2 a teaspoon cinnamon. Stir very, very well, so all of the cherries get coated. Take your time. This step is key to perfectly thickened fruit filling. Pour into the glass baking dish. Rinse the bowl and wipe dry with a paper towel. Add the cut up butter, flour, oats, brown sugarm remaining cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Mix with your hands until crumbly. If you need more flour then add some. If you think this mix is too dry add a little bit more butter. No biggie. When the crumbles are clumping, spread over the top of the cherry mixture. Do not press down. Just let it be. This is what makes the crisp a crisp. Otherwise it will be a cobbler. Not what we are going for. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the middle is bubbling. You can use a thermometer to read the temperature in the middle of the pan. You should let it get to 180 degrees. The middle has to boil so the fruit thickens. When it is boiling and bubbling, take it out and let stand for a few minutes. Scoop some into a bowl, scoop up some ice cream and have at it!
Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen tart cherries for the best flavor. If using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
- Add a little bit of cornstarch to the cherry mixture to help thicken it up.
- For a sweeter crisp, add some sugar to the cherry mixture. You can also use a flavored sugar, such as brown sugar or maple sugar.
- If you don't have a pastry cutter, you can use two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture.
- Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the crisp. This will help to ensure that the crust cooks evenly.
- Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
This tart cherry crisp is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The tart cherries give the crisp a unique and flavorful taste, and the oat crumble topping adds a satisfying crunch.
