Ingredients

• 900 grams fresh or frozen sour cherries
• 150 grams granulated sugar
• 30 grams cornstarch
• 15 milliliters lemon juice
• 5 milliliters vanilla extract
• 115 grams unsalted butter (cold)
• 120 grams all-purpose flour
• 60 grams rolled oats
• 75 grams light brown sugar
• 2 grams ground cinnamon
• 2 grams salt
• 1 piece pre-made or homemade pie crust

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Place the oven rack in the center position.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until the cherries are well-coated. Set aside to allow the mixture to macerate for about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Unroll or prepare your pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess edges and crimp the edges for decoration. Place the pie crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the crumble topping.

Step 4

For the crumble topping, cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes. In another bowl, mix together the flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and pour the cherry mixture evenly into the crust.

Step 6

Sprinkle the prepared crumble topping evenly over the cherries, ensuring full coverage.

Step 7

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crumble topping is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 2 hours to set before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate dessert experience.
