Gluten Free Cherry Cobbler (Dairy Free Option)
Description
The recipe assembles a flavorful filling of pitted cherries layered with almonds or rose petals in a prepared baking dish. The topping is made by whisking eggs, sugar, salt, and gluten-free flours, then blending in milk, melted coconut or vegan butter, amaretto or brandy, and vanilla or rosewater extract. This mixture has the texture of crepe batter and is poured over the fruit layer.
Baked at 400°F for 30 to 35 minutes, the cobbler develops a golden, puffed crust and a soft, flavorful interior. A light dusting of powdered sugar before serving adds sweetness. The optional whipped cream complements the cherry and almond flavors. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for four days in a sealed container.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cherry pits and stems removed (you can use fresh or frozen cherries
- 2 tablespoons blanched slivered almonds for a more floral flavor, or 2 tablespoons dried rose petals
- 3 egg
- ¼ cup sugar can also use rose sugar for a more cherry rose cake
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup almond flour
- ½ cup gluten free flour or ¼ cup sweet rice flour, and ¼ cup gluten-free oat flour, plus 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum
- 3 TB butter coconut oil or vegan butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons amaretto or brandy
- 1 cup milk or non-dairy milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or rosewater extract
- powdered sugar for dusting
- Whipped Cream optional, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F. Prep and butter a 9-inch quiche or pie pan, and place it on a baking sheet to avoid any dripping.
- Scatter the cherries and slivered almonds (or rose petals) over the bottom of the dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Gradually add in the sugar, salt and flours, whisking until smooth. Add in milk, melted butter, amaretto or brandy and vanilla or rosewater extract. Whisk until well combined.
- Gradually pour in the milk, and whisk gently. The batter should look like crepe batter. Pour the mixture atop the cherries and almonds.
- Bake at 400F for 30-35 mins, until the cobbler topping is puffed and golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Serve gluten-free cherry cobbler still warm from the oven, or in room temperature. Dust with powdered sugar just before serving. Top with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
- Leftover gluten-free cherry cobbler will keep in a sealed container in the fridge for 4 days.
