Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 12 tablespoons butter cut into cubes
  • 21 ounce can cherry pie filling

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add flour, sugar, and butter to a medium mixing bowl and use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into the flour and sugar until you have coarse crumbs. Alternately, add the flour, sugar, and butter to the bowl of a food processor and process just until you have coarse crumbs. Do not overmix.
  • Press half of the dough into the bottom of a 7x11 or 9x9 baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove crust from the oven and spread the cherry filling over the top. Sprinkle the remaining crust mixture evenly over the filling.
  • Return to the oven for 50-60 more minutes or until the crust is starting to turn golden at the edges.
  • Cool completely before cutting and serving.

Notes

You may use any canned pie filling in this recipe. Strawberry, blueberry, etc. all work well.
Store these bars in the fridge, covered, for 3-4 days.
