Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups pitted bing cherries frozen or fresh
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 1/2 TBSP cornstarch
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1–2 teaspoons lemon juice to taste
- 1 cup flour

Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the bing cherries, water, cornstarch, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble, about 10 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the cherry filling into a greased baking dish.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk and egg until just combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit topping over the cherry filling. Sprinkle the additional 2 tablespoons of sugar on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and cooked through. Let it cool slightly before serving.
