Crispy Cherry Oatmeal Cobbler

Ingredients
For the filling:
- 2 pounds fresh cherries
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2-3 tablespoons bourbon
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
For the oatmeal topping:
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup salted butter, softened
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350. Grease a 9” to 10” pie pan with butter and set aside.
- First, pit and halve your cherries.
- Mix halved cherries with the other filling ingredients, stir well, and set aside.
- To make the topping, grind the oats in a food processor or blender until somewhat fine. Either in the food processor or a mixing bowl, add in the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon and mix well.
- Mix in the butter, either by pulsing the processor or blender a few times or stir by hand or with a hand mixer. It should be the texture of a dry cookie dough.
- Stir the cherry filling again and pour into your prepared dish, Crumble the topping evenly over the filling, making sure to get all the way to the edges. There’s no wrong way to do this, as long as you drop the pieces gently so as not to press it into the filling.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping begins to turn a deep golden brown. Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving, ideally with some vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream!
