  • Dutch Oven

Ingredients

Crust

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Filling

  • 2 30-ounce cans of cherry pie filling

Instructions

  • To help with cleanup afterwards, the first thing you’ll want to do is to take some heavy duty aluminum foil and line your Dutch oven with it.
  • Take the cans of cherry filling and our into the Dutch oven, spreading the filling all over the bottom.
  • Mix the flour, oatmeal, and sugar in a bowl.
  • Add the vanilla.
  • Cut up the butter into 1 tbsp pieces and mix into the flour and sugar mixture. A pastry cutter works well.
  • Spread the topping on top of the cherries.
  • Put lid on Dutch oven and put 15 coals on top, 9 underneath (adjust for wind and temp) and cook for 60 minutes, or until cherry filling is bubbling up through the crust and crust is browning.
  • Remove, and serve with whipped cream.
