For the crust and crumble

Directions:
Prepare a baking pan (over it with a baking sheet). Mix the ingredients for crust until you have well-formed crumble pieces. Using fingers press 2/3 of the mixture to the bottom of your prepared baking pan.
Mix the ingredients for cherry layer and add it on top of the crust.
Sprinkle with the remaining crumble mixture.
Bake for 45 minutes on 180 C. If you see the crumble is getting too brown, cover it with a baking paper.
