How to Make Double Cherry Pie

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
**Make the crust:** Melt 1/2 cup (113g) chocolate pieces and 5 tablespoons (70g) butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Remove from heat and stir in 3/4 cup (90g) rolled oats, 3/4 cup (100g) all-purpose flour, and 1/4 cup (50g) packed light brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a greased 10-inch pie plate.
Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
**Prepare the filling:** In a large bowl, combine your desired amount of cherry pie filling (see ingredient list below for suggestions) with fresh or frozen cherries (approximately 4 cups), and 1 teaspoon almond extract.
Pour the cherry filling into the partially baked crust.
**Make the crumble topping:** In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons (25g) packed light brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons (20g) rolled oats.
Cut in 3 tablespoons (42g) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in 1/4 cup (56g) chocolate pieces.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cherry filling.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
