1 Cutting board
1 9 x 13 baking dish
1 medium bowl for the crisp topping
1 Pastry cutter or fork

Ingredients

Cherry Apple Filling

2 cups fresh cherries pitted and halved
4-5 apples approximately 1 1/2 lbs; dice into 1 inch cubes
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup flour
1 pinch kosher salt

Oat Crumble Topping

1 1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup flour
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 sticks butter chilled; diced into small cubes
1 pinch salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon optional
1 tsp vanilla extract optional

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a 9 x 13 baking dish, add your diced apples, sliced cherries, sugar and flour. Stir to combine.
2 cups fresh cherries, 4-5 apples, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup flour, 1 pinch salt
Place crumble ingredients in a medium bowl. Cut the butter in using the pastry fork or your fingers until the mixture looks like clumpy sand.
1 pinch kosher salt, 1 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 cup flour, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 2 sticks butter
Sprinkle the crumble over the cherry apple fruit filling.
Place the cherry apple crumble in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the topping is golden. You will also be able to see liquid from the fruit bubbling in the corners.
Allow the cherry and apple crumble to cool for 20-30 minutes, then serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Notes

To make this apple cherry crisp with frozen cherries, be sure to thaw the cherries overnight in a large bowl in the fridge and strain off the excess liquid.
For a really delicious flavor, use a combination of tart and sweet apples.
Feel free to change up the vanilla extract with cardamom extract or cinnamon extract for extra flavor.
For a little extra texture, add up to 1/2 cup of sliced almonds into the crumb topping.
Garnish with lemon zest if you like a brighter zing.
Sprinkle some apple pie spice into your fruit filling and crumble topping to add the warm flavors of fall.
