CHERRY CRISP

Today is national cherry dessert day and I am so excited to host a collab with cherries over on my Instagram channel. Everything is getting creative and showing off their best cherry dessert recipes. I decided to put a twist on a cobbler and add some texture to this dessert that would knock your socks off. It’s a good balance of sweet and tart and slightly savory. My secret ingredient, drum roll please, HONEY BUNCHES OF OATS! Yep, it puts the crisp in cherry crisp and takes this dessert to a whole other level.
