If using fresh cherries, you'll need to pit and halve them. Then, mix the cherries with sugar, cornstarch, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Transfer this mixture to a baking dish and top with a buttery oat-based topping. Bake in an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C) until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
