Instructions
Preheat oven to 400℉. In a 9" by 9" dish or round pie plate combine rhubarb and coconut oil (or fat of choice) by tossing together with two spoons. Roast in preheated oven 20 minutes.
Meanwhile place water in a small dish or Pyrex style measuring cup and sprinkle gelatin over its surface to dissolve. After one minute, stir together. Set aside.
While rhubarb roasts: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, arrowroot or tapioca, baking powder, coconut sugar and salt. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut the coconut oil into the flour mixture until it's well mixed in, and you have a crumbly looking flour. Stir in the milk until it comes together as a dough.
Remove hot, roasted rhubarb from the oven. Reduce oven temperature to 375℉. Toss strawberries, tapioca pearls, gelatin water and maple syrup into roasted rhubarb, using two spoons.
Scoop dough into 9 sections for a square dish, or fewer for a round dish. With each one, pat it between your palms to flatten into a patty shape about ⅔" thick. Place on top of rhubarb and strawberries in dish, and repeat until all of the dough is evenly placed.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown, and the rhubarb and juices underneath are bubbly.
Cool on rack about 60 minutes, or fully cool for the thickest jammiest fruit underneath. Serve topped with optional ice cream. Chilled leftovers are also great (even for breakfast). Cobbler keeps, covered in the fridge, for up to 3 days.
