Vegan Cherry Cobbler





FOR THE CRUMBLE TOPPING

· 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut

· 1 1/2 cups walnuts (Optional: Soaked and dehydrated to make them dry and crispy. If you don't have a dehydrator, then simply toast in the oven at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.

· 1/2 teaspoon salt

· 1/3 cup pitted dates (medjool)

FOR THE FILLING:

· 3 cups cherries, frozen, thawed and drained (I used fresh cherries.)

· 1/2 cup pitted dates

· 2 teaspoons lemon juice

· 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

1. Make the crumble topping: Process all ingredients in a food processor except the dates. Add dates one at a time to form coarse crumbs.

2. Make the filling: In a Vitamix or blender, combine 1 cup cherries with dates, lemon juice and cinnamon. Then toss in a bowl with the remaining 2 cups cherries.

3. Put cherry mixture in a square glass baking dish. Top with crumble topping. Refrigerate until ready to serve. 

Alternatively, you can put the cherry mixture directly into serving dishes and top with crumble topping.
