A friend of mine has a sweet cherry tree in his yard and gave me a couple gallon Ziplocs for the freezer last year. I still haven’t used them all up, but always keep my eye out for cherry recipes. I thought I’d give this one a whirl, since I had all the ingredients on hand, except the shredded coconut, which I omitted. There isn’t much sweetener, so I wasn’t sure how they’d come out, but I like the slight tartness from the cherries. I ended up grinding more almonds than I needed to, so I mixed the extra meal in with the quick cherry jam. I only had a cup of jam after cooking down the cherries, but it was enough to cover the crust. I put (greased) parchment paper in my baking pan and I had a little difficulty spreading the crust batter in the bottom. It was very sticky and I had to spread thinly to cover the bottom. Even then, the corners were rounded off. However, the whole thing baked up fine and it is tasty. Plus, 1/16 of the recipe is just under 100 calories. Thanks for sharing!

I made these today and they turned out great! I was looking for a healthy fruit bar and I found it! I used marionberry jam, as I didn’t have cherry and they are wonderful! My whole family loved them! Thank you for the recipe!!
