Ingredients
Cherry Filling
- 4 heaping cups frozen cherries I used a frozen blend of tart and sweet cherries
- 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons arrowroot powder cornstarch also works
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
Topping
- 1 ½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup slivered raw almonds
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 3 Tablespoons melted coconut oil
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
- Add frozen cherries, lemon juice, almond extract and arrowroot powder to a saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 7-10 minutes, stirring and pressing down with a wooden spoon or spatula occasionally to break down the cherries. You want your cherry mixture to thicken up slightly so it coats the back of a spoon without being too drippy.
- While cherries are simmering, make your topping. In a medium bowl, stir together oats, almonds, almond flour, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, cinnamon, almond extract and sea salt. Set aside.
- Carefully pour cherry mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spoon oatmeal almond topping over the cherries in an even layer.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and topping is golden brown.
- Let cool for 15-20 minutes then serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping.
Notes
- apple crisp
- peach crisp
- blueberry crumble
- Storage: Store leftovers at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days. Freezing isn’t recommended, as the topping may lose its texture. For reheating, use the oven or toaster oven to keep the topping crisp, as the microwave can make it soggy.
- Substitutions: If you’d like to swap the cherries with another fruit a mix of berries or pears would be a good substitute. You could also make this apple crisp, peach crisp or blueberry crumble instead!
