Yield: 10 servings
3 cups strawberries, hulled, larger berries cut in half
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons almond flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Nonstick cooking spray
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Put the strawberries, 1/3 cup of sugar, orange zest, and cornstarch in a bowl and toss to combine. Let the berries stand while you make the crumble topping.
3. Put the butter, almond flour, all-purpose flour, and remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar in a bowl, toss them together, and work the mixture with your fingers until it comes together in a loose dough.
4. Spray a 9- by 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Put the strawberries in the dish, using a rubber spatula to gently pat them down into an even layer. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the strawberries.
5. Bake the cobbler until the topping is golden and the fruit is bubbling, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve warm.
