Blueberry and Sour Cherry Oat Crisp

The spring of 2023 I finally went to the effort of netting the two small blueberry bushes in our yard. By late June I harvested about 2 pounds of berries. I also had on-hand the last of the sour cherries we picked at a local orchard. I went searching for a recipe for sour cherries and blueberries and found one on yayforfood.com. This is an adaptation of that recipe.

Fruit

• 1 c tart/sour cherries (rinsed, pitted)
