I have a huge sweet tooth and in the summer I try to kick my cravings with fresh fruit! I started making this cherry crisp as an alternative to my favorite fruit cobblers. Instead of crust, I add Trader Joe’s Almond Butter Granola but still top the crisp with a little ice cream. I have used cherries, peaches, blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries to make this crisp and all versions were delicious. My cherry pitter is from Crate & Barrel and it is super easy to use and is dishwasher safe. Enjoy! xoxo
