Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen cherries: Fresh cherries are best for this recipe, but frozen cherries can also be used. If using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
  • Pit the cherries: Before using, cherries need to be pitted. This can be done with a cherry pitter or by hand. To pit cherries by hand, use a sharp knife to cut around the stem and remove the pit.
  • Sweeten the cherries: Cherries can be sweetened with sugar, honey, or maple syrup. The amount of sweetener you use will depend on your personal preference.
  • Use a variety of nuts: This recipe calls for chopped walnuts, but you can use any type of nut you like. Some other good options include almonds, pecans, or hazelnuts.
  • Don't overcook the topping: The topping should be golden brown and bubbly, but not overcooked. Otherwise, it will become hard and crumbly.
  • Serve warm or cold: Cherry crunch can be served warm or cold. If you want to serve it warm, reheat it in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes.

Conclusion:
