Ingredients

Cherry Filling:
  • 8 cups fresh cherries pitted*
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp tapioca flour
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt to taste
Gluten-Free Cobbler Topping
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2/3 cup unsalted butter or ghee, melted
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
Paleo Vegan Topping Option:
  • 2 cups Super Fine Almond Flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract optional
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions

Prepare the Cherry Filling:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the ingredients for the cherry filling to a large pot. Cover, heat over medium-high, and bring to a full boil. Reduce the heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until much liquid has seeped out of the cherries, about 5 minutes. Transfer this mixture to a large (13” x 9”) casserole dish.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Prepare the Topping:
  1. Add all ingredients except melted ghee to a mixing bowl and stir together. Pour in the ghee and continue stirring until a thick dough forms (Note: if you're preparing the paleo vegan version of the topping, simply stir all the ingredients together in a bowl).
  2. Distribute the topping mixture over the cherry filling - I like leaving the topping in large chunks, but you can create an even layer or form it into disc shapes to take a biscuit approach.
  3. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven 30 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden-brown and cherries are bubbly. Serve cherry cobbler warm in bowls with ice cream!

Notes

  • *Or use two (16-ounce) bags of frozen cherries
