But why stop there? Make the perfect American deep-dish dessert by using your favorite fruit as a filling—whatever it may be! As long as you’re using our crunch mix as a topping, your flavors will shine. Just add some butter and then you’ll really be cookin’ up something special.

• Serve warm, alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or with whipped cream.
• Experiment with your filling and try different fresh or canned fruit in place of cherries, such as apples, peaches, pears, berries, apricots, pineapple, or fruit cocktail. Or branch out into vegetables and pair with rhubarb.
