Description

This gluten free fresh cherry crumble recipe with vanilla powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon bakes in an air fryer for a dessert that doesn't heat up the house.

Ingredients

1/3 cup butter
3 cups pitted cherries
10 tablespoons white sugar, divided
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup gluten-free all purpose baking flour
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1 Cube butter; place in the freezer until very firm, about 15 minutes.
2 Preheat an air fryer to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
3 Combine cherries, 2 tablespoons sugar, and lemon juice in a large bowl until cherries are evenly coated; transfer to an air fryer-safe baking dish.
4 Whisk flour and 6 tablespoons sugar together in a bowl until well combined; cut in chilled butter using fingers until pea-sized pieces remain. Sprinkle over cherries; press down lightly.
5 Stir remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, vanilla powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon together in a bowl until well combined; sprinkle over cherries and flour mixture.
6 Cook in the preheated air fryer until slightly browned; check at 25 minutes if not yet browned. Continue cooking until slightly browned, checking at 5-minute intervals. Close air fryer drawer; turn air fryer off, leaving crumble inside for 10 minutes. Transfer crumble to a cutting board; cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
