Ingredients

for the filling

  • 1 15 oz can tart cherries drained (see note below about fruit selection)
  • 1 lb frozen blackberries

  • 3/4 to 1 C sugar
  • 1 T flour heaping
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 t cinnamon
  • dash of nutmeg

  • 1 C dark brown sugar

Instructions

  • Oven to 350.
  • Combine the filling ingredients and pour into a suitably-sized baking dish. A Fiesta two-quart serving bowl is just right.
