Cherry Crumble
This is originally my recipe except my mom stole it, well she borrowed it, well maybe I just shared it with her. I happened upon this recipe while in college. I’m not sure in what cooking class I made it in but it became a fast favorite of mine. At least I got one thing out of my $40,000+ education that I’m not really using except in my blog!
That’s right I have a Bachelor’s in Hotel/Restaurant Management and I’m a successful Service Coordinator for a telecommunications company. Funny how that happens isn’t it? Don’t get me wrong, I love my job, but my education is rather useless at this moment in time. I did use it for about 4 years after college, but after that I moved to a smaller town and there’s not much calling for it. I did learn lots of fun cooking tips and things like that which I use in everyday life. And you lucky people get to read about!
Cherry Crumble Recipe
This is a super easy recipe and totally yummy, but unfortunately the hubby is not a fan of cherries so I don’t have the opportunity to enjoy it very often. Remember how I told you he was going to be gone for a while during the week for work?
Well, I may have used this to my advantage. No no no I’m not telling you I made it and invited my parents over, although that would have been a fantastic thing for a wonderful daughter like me to do. Actually my mom invited me over and told me I could pick whatever I wanted.
This was definitely one of my top priorities. Along with several other dishes I will be sharing with you. My hubby frequently tells me I am spoiled by my parents. Now that I share this information with you I’m sure you might agree with him. Well the truth is I might be spoiled but I prefer to say I’m just loved!

Hi I have just picked some cherries from my tree, can I use fresh cherries instead of caned
Julie Evink says
Sorry I haven’t tested it like this! I would think you’d need to make a pie filling with your fresh cherries to do it.
Rebecca says
I made this for a Memorial Day picnic-it was a huge hit…I added chopped, toasted pecans to the crust and it was really delicious. So very easy to make and with items I always have on hand…thank you for sharing!
Julie Evink says

Tonya says

Awesome and so easy to make – feeds so many for one of those “I appreciate you” days wen you want to show your co-workers and guys “in the field” that you are so grateful for their work!
Thanks for sharing!
Julie Evink says
It’s perfect for this! Glad you enjoyed it!
Sarah says
Hi! I was wondering if I could use fresh cherries. I have a kilo of them from my MIL and need to use them quickly before they go bad! Thanks!
Julie Evink says
I’m not sure, I don’t think it would work because of the glaze in the canned cherries.
Sarah says
Can it be frozen before baking? If so, thaw it before baking?
Julie Evink says
I think it would work! The baking times would just be drastically different if it was thawed/frozen when baking.
Betty Crocker says
I had a craving for something cherry and this recipe fit the bill completely. I paired the cherry crisp with homemade vanilla ice cream and the result – pure heaven!
Julie Evink says
So glad you enjoyed it!

I tried this with blueberry pie filling last night. Took one apple and one blueberry to our book club. I prefer the apple but blueberry was good too. LOL one of my friends went absolutely nuts over the blueberry. They think I slaved away all day to make it.
Julie Evink says
Oooo they both sound so good! Glad you enjoyed them!
Rebeccc6 says
For those like me that aren’t crazy about cherries, apple pie filling is a wonderful substitute
Julie Evink says
Yes it sure is! My hubby would agree with you!
diane says
