Ingredients

Crisp Topping:
  • ½ cup white flour
  • ½ cup old fashioned oats
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar lightly packed
  • 1 tablespoon Barleans Forti-Flax
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup Finely chopped pecans
  • ¼ cup butter flavored coconut oil melted
Cherry Filling:
  • 4 cups fresh cherries pitted
  • 3 tablespoons white granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. For the crisp topping combine the white flour, old fashioned oats, brown sugar, Forti-Flax, salt, ground cinnamon, and pecans in a stand mixer with a flat paddle. Mix on low then carefully pour in the coconut oil. Mix until coarse pieces form. Set to the side.
  3. Next, rinse and *pit your cherries. Place the pitted cherries in a large mixing bowl. Add ¼ cup white sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon almond extract to the cherries. Mix well until every cherry is coated with the cornstarch/sugar/almond extract mixture.
  4. Spray a large cast iron skillet with coconut oil spray. Pour in the cherry mixture and then top with the oat mixture. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes or until the crisp topping is golden brown.
  5. Serve the skillet cherry crisps warm or at room temperature, and top with dairy free ice cream.

Notes

  • You can pit the cherries up to a day in advance prior to making your crisp. Once they are all pitted; I add the sugar, cornstarch and almond extract. Then I give it a nice mix to make sure it’s all incorporated.
  • Place the skillet on a baking sheet to catch any spillover.
  • I like to set this in the oven as we sit down to dinner - then it's hot and ready for dessert time!
