Ingredients

  • 2 cups cherries- washed, halved, pitted
  • 3 tablespoons honey or granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch optional, but will give you thicker roasted cherries

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the cherries, honey, and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix well until the cherries are well coated and everything is mixed in.
  • Place cherries on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread in a single layer.
  • Bake for about 10-20 minutes. The cherries should release their juices and soften slightly. You do not want them to be too mushy, so don't overdo it.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool or you use them warm.
