I am pleased to bring you a festive treat for the upcoming holidays that is quick and easy to assemble, can be made gluten free, and will tickle your tastebuds. This pie is made with a can of cherry pie filling, and a crumb topping that is easier to whip up than pie crust.

In a medium bowl combine:

• 1 can cherry pie filling
• 1 teaspoon almond flavor
• 1 teaspoon vanilla flavor

Pour cherry mixture into a 9″ deep dish pie plate and top with this crumb topping mixture:

• 3/4 cups plain flour or use Bob’s Gluten Free Baking Mix for gluten free pie
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 stick soft butter
• 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Blend the topping ingredients by hand until well mixed and crumbly.  Sprinkle topping over pie filling.  Bake at 400 until crust is golden brown.

Blueberry, apple, or peach pie filling can be used for variation.
