That’s the way the cherry crumbles…
Cherry cobbler makes a delicious summer dessert (or breakfast if you are my 17 year old son Jake) that requires minimal ingredients and little effort in the kitchen. If you prefer a custard style sweet, then try the cherry clafoutis recipe below.
Step 1 Combine cherries, lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 cup sugar, and corn starch. Step 2 Spoon the mixture into prepared ramekins. Step 3 Combine 1 cup flour, oats, brown sugar, salt and the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until the butter is the size of peas. Step 4 Sprinkle evenly over the fruit. Place the ramekins on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the tops are browned and crisp and the juices are bubbly. Serve warm or at room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9" gratin dish. In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar + a pinch of salt. Whisk in eggs, butter & lemon zest until smooth. Add milk and whisk lightly for an additional 3 minutes Pour batter into gratin dish and top with cherries. Bake for about 30 minutes, until clafoutis is set & golden. Let cool slightly and dust with confectioners sugar. Short Cut: Mix the batter ahead of time and pop in the oven when your company arrives for dinner. Think Out of the Ice Box: Substitute cherries with seasonal berries.Individual Cherry Crumbles
