- In another recipient, mix up the flour, the sugar and the grinded almonds.
- Cut in little pieces the cold butter, and add it to the previous mix.
- To manage the mixture, we join the ingredients using the fingertip, preparing little crumbs.
- Spread up over the recipients with the cherries basis, the "crumbles" prepared in the previous step.
- Warm up the oven.  When it was heat up, put the recipients and cook until the surface were a golden aspect.
