Cherry Cobbler
- 3 cups fresh cherries, pitted
- 3/4 cup agave nectar
- 1/3 cup arrowroot
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups whole spelt flour, plus more for sprinkling
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/3 cup evaporated cane juice, plus more for sprinkling
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, plus more for the ramekins
- 6 tablespoons cold water
- In a medium bowl, combine the cherries, agave nectar, arrowroot, vanilla, and 1 teaspoon of the salt.
- Toss together until the cherries are completely coated.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, evaporated cane juice, and the remaining teaspoon salt.
- Add the oil and cold water to the dry ingredients and stir to make a dough.
- If it is too dry, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a moist, sticky dough is achieved.
- Spread plastic wrap on the counter and sprinkle it with spelt flour.
- Place the dough on the plastic wrap and shape it into a 3-inch-thick flattened disk.
- Wrap the dough tightly and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes, and up to 3 days, before using.
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- Brush eight 6-ounce ramekins with oil and set aside.
- Cover your work surface with parchment paper and sprinkle it heavily with spelt flour.
- Dredge the dough through the flour until it is completely covered.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to form a 1/4-inch-thick circle about 8 inches in diameter.
- Use a sharp knife to cut 1/2-inch-wide strips.
- Fill the prepared ramekins about three-quarters full with the cherry filling.
- Arrange the dough strips decoratively over the filling.
- Brush the strips with oil and sprinkle with evaporated cane juice.
- Place the ramekins on a baking sheet.
- Bake the cobblers on the bottom shelf for 20 minutes, until the crusts are golden and flaky.
- Let the cobblers stand for 15 minutes; serve warm.
- To store leftovers, cool the cobblers completely, then cover with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
