- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix until pea-size pieces form. Set to the side.
- In a large bowl, rinse and pit all cherries.

- Spray a ceramic baking dish with cooking spray. Then pour in the cherry mixture. Sprinkle the oat topping on top of the cherries.

Notes
- Cherries - If you don't have access to fresh cherries you can use frozen cherries. Make sure you thaw the frozen cherries prior to mixing with sugar blend.
- Make Ahead - I have prepared the dessert ahead of time then an hour later baked at a friends house so we could have warm cherry crisp straight from the oven after dinner.
- Pitting Cherries - I love to use the OXO Cherry Pitter. It makes pitting the cherries very easy. However, if you don't have access to a cherry pitter you can simply cut the cherries in half and remove the pit using a spoon.
