Tart Cherry Crisp With Oaty Crumble Topping Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
• 2. Pour the cans of cherries into a large strainer set over a large bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons of the water from the cherries, and discard the rest. Dump the cherries into the bowl and set aside.

Remove from the heat and stir in the almond extract. Pour over the cherries and stir well to combine.
