Gluten-Free Coconut Raspberry Apple Cobbler (Vegan)
This delicious Gluten Free Apple Cobbler is packed with delightful apple, raspberry & coconut flavors and makes for one flavorful dessert.
As you can probably tell by now, I am quite fond of crisps, crumbles & cobblers. I am always making some variation of these with whatever fruit we have on hand; as we really enjoy having a healthily sweet treat at the end of our busy days in this household.
Apart from the classics, like this gluten free peach cobbler, I also greatly enjoy playing with flavor combinations, and this is one combo I most certainly had to share.
The apples and coconut paired with raspberries make for one slightly sweet and slightly tangy delight!
Top it with pillowy gluten free cobbler biscuits, and it makes for one satisfyingly filling treat as well.

- Any granulated sweetener can be used in place of coconut sugar in this recipe.
- For a no sugar added version, I’m quite fond of this sugar-free sweetener.
- In a pinch, apple cider vinegar can be used in place of lemon juice throughout the recipe.
- The gluten-free all purpose flour blend I use with this recipe is this one. But any gluten-free all purpose blend should work, either with or without xanthan gum.
