I didn't have any cherries on hand, so I used blueberries instead. It turned out great! The blueberries were just as flavorful as the cherries would have been.

This cherry go-round was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The streusel topping was really good though.

I'm not a big fan of cherry desserts, but this one was really good. The cherry filling was tart and sweet, and the streusel topping was perfectly crispy.
