In the summer I’m constantly looking for any excuse to eat ice cream. It’s just too hot here in Sacramento to think about anything else! Today I’m sharing this Easy Cherry Almond Crisp that is fantastic on it’s own but is absolute heaven when enjoyed with a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream.
This recipe is what all my favorite recipes are – easy and delicious. I cut corners and used store bought cherry pie filling but you could absolutely make your own if you’re into that sort of thing. Apple or blueberry filling would also be amazing.

5 SECRETS TO GETTING DINNER ON THE TABLE...FAST!
The real star of this recipe is the crisp topping. I’m all about the topping in recipes like this. I like the proportion of the filling to the topping to be relatively equal for the perfect crisp and this one is spot on. If you’re thinking, I’m seriously ALL about the topping, you could even reduce the filling to just one can of pie filling, no problem at all.
The topping is extra crunchy due to the addition of sliced almonds. Cherry and almond go together so beautifully that the almonds were just a natural addition to my favorite crisp recipe. Oats, flour, cinnamon, brown sugar, and some sliced almonds for crunch. I use a pastry cutter to cut in cold butter and within a few minutes the topping is ready to be sprinkled on top of the filling. It’s just that easy.
This Easy Cherry Almond Crisp is best served warm with two scoops of vanilla ice cream. I like to sprinkle on some extra ground cinnamon on top of the ice cream – so pretty!
