Ingredients

2 cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups pitted and chopped fresh cherries (including any juice from chopping)
1/4 cup gluten-free rolled oats
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
2 Combine flour, ½ cup white sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl; make a well in center. Whisk milk, vegetable oil, egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract together in a separate bowl until blended; pour into well in flour mixture. Stir until batter is just blended and slightly lumpy; gently fold in cherries and cherry juice. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each ⅔ full
3 Combine oats, brown sugar, ¼ cup white sugar, and butter in a small bowl until crumbly; sprinkle over batter.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
