Do you ever go to Costco and buy more than you planned? Me too! I have a love/hate relationship with that store.

I love that I can buy products in large quantities (because I hate grocery shopping) and that they have quite a large selection of organic products.

The hate part comes from going in, with a list, prepared to buy certain products and then falling prey to all of the wonderful deliciousness they have to offer.

Friendly Shopping Tip: DO NOT GO SHOPPING WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY!

This may seem quite obvious, and I know this, but I did it anyway and now have a freezer full of things I really didn’t need :/

Anyway, when I came out of there with a few (three) large bags of frozen fruit I wondered what in the world I was going to do with all of it.

Then it hit me- Cherry Crisp!

If you find yourself in possession of large amounts of fruit, like cherries, give this cherry crisp recipe a try.

You will not be disappointed!

Ready for some yummy cherry deliciousness?!

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Mix cherries and lemon juice in a bowl
In a pan, mix 4 Tbsp. of flour, a pinch of salt, and 1/2 cup water on low to medium heat
(for extra sweetness or cherry flavor you can also use 1/2 cup of cherry juice instead of water)
After that is mixed well, add cherry and lemon mixture
Stir well and continue to do so until the mixture is thickened. Make sure not to scorch
Grease (lightly) a pie pan
Spoon cherry mixture into the pan
Begin to make the topping. In a large bowl add oats, a pinch of salt, 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp. of flour, coconut sugar, and cinnamon.

Let stand to cool for a few minutes before serving
Enjoy!
