Oh, so good! (Prep time doesn't include pitting the cherries.)
Ingredients:
3 cups bing cherries, pitted and halved
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4-1/2 cup sugar or 1/4-1/2 cup splenda sugar substitute
1/3 cup flour
1 cup flour
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/3 cup buttermilk
sugar, for sprinkling top
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. In mixing bowl, combine cherries, flour and sugar; toss to coat evenly.
3. Place in 8” square pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly.
4. Meanwhile, sift flour into bowl; add baking powder, soda, and salt; and cut in chilled butter with pastry blender or 2 knives. When pea-sized texture, add buttermilk -all at once- stir just to blend.
5. DO NOT OVERMIX; dough will be tough.
6. When cherries are finished baking, remove from oven, drop dough by large spoonsful over cherries, and sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar.
7. Return to oven for 25-30 minutes or until topping is done and golden brown.
8. Serve hot or cool with whipped cream.
