Fom Lucy Waverman's column in the Globe and Mail. I had it warm with vanilla ice-cream - real comfort food! (Ms. Waverman suggests making this with gooseberries as well - but increase the granulated sugar to 1/2 cup if the are sour. )
Ingredients:
1 lb sour cherry, pitted (to pit the cherries, squeeze them between your fingers)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup packed demerara sugar
1 pinch ground ginger
1 pinch ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 350*F.
2. Toss cherries with granulated sugar and place in an ovenproof dish.
3. Combine flour, ginger, cinnamon and Demerara sugar.
4. Using your fingertips (or the food-processor) rub butter into flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
5. Sprinkle mixture over fruit.
6. Bake at 350*F for 35-40 minutes or until golden.
7. Serve hot or cold with cream or custard.
