How to Bake a Gluten-Free Cherry Cake with Crumb Topping
Tip :) Only use a kitchen scale for our recipes and to weigh the flour.
Dough
- Bring all the ingredients together to form a crumbly dough. It's not supposed to be kneaded properly, just enough to combine all the ingredients.
- Pour 2/3 of the dough into a springform pan (approx. 24 cm in diameter) and shape into a smooth base with an edge of approx. 3 cm at the top. Refrigerate.
Filling:
- First stone the cherries and let them simmer in a saucepan for about 10 minutes, stirring often. This will make them softer and the juice will come out. Put aside.
- Now mix all the ingredients for the filling together and pour onto the cake base. Scatter over the cherries with the juice. "Pluck" crumbles from the remaining 1/3 of the dough and place on the cherries, pressing down lightly.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven, 200 degrees, top and bottom heat, for 40 minutes. Let cool and sprinkle with some powdered sugar before serving. The fruity cherries and buttery streusel make this pie a real treat.
