Ingredients
Filling
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ cup water
- 1 (12 ounce) bag frozen pitted dark sweet cherries, thawed
- 1 tablespoon butter
Topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup white sugar, divided
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk
- 3 tablespoons shortening
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
Step 2
Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon in a large saucepan; stir in water until mixture is smooth. Add cherries and butter to sugar mixture and bring to a boil; cook and stir until cherry mixture is thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour cherry filling into the prepared baking dish.
Step 3
Mix flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; cut in shortening using a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir milk into flour mixture until topping is just moistened. Drop topping by spoonfuls over cherry filling; sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons sugar over topping.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until topping is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
