Directions
1.
For fresh cherries, pit over a bowl to catch any juices. (If using frozen fruit, thaw but do not drain.) In a large saucepan combine sugar and cornstarch; stir in cherries and 2 tablespoons reserved cherry liquid or water. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Turn into a 2-quart square baking dish; set aside.
2.
For topping, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, and spice. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in coconut and nuts. Sprinkle topping over filling. Bake in a 375 degree F. oven about 25 minutes or until golden. Serve warm with ice cream or light cream, if desired. Makes 6 servings.
