2 (16 oz.) cans sour cherries
3/4 c. sugar
12 Zwiebac
1/3 c. butter, melted
1 tsp. almond extract or 1/4 c. chopped almonds
1 tbsp. tapioca (to absorb some of the juices)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drain the cherries and then, in a shallow baking dish, toss the cherries in the sugar and tapioca to coat. Crush the Zwiebak into fine crumbs, mix with butter and chopped almonds or almond extract and sprinkle on top of the cherries. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
