Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Open the tube of crescent roll dough and press it out flat onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, sealing the perforations.
Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with chopped cherries.
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, leaving an open center. Brush with egg wash.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Let cool for a few minutes, drizzle powdered sugar over the top, slice, and serve.

Don’t skimp on the cherries for both color and flavor. Try swapping fillings like blueberries or strawberries for variety.
