Turn on your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a medium-sized bowl, combine oat flour, rolled oats, brown rice flour, sea salt, lemon zest, applesauce, and maple syrup.

Mix thoroughly until you have a nice crumbly texture.

Line a baking dish with parchment paper.

Take 3/4 of the crumble mixture and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a base layer.

In a pot on medium-high heat, add frozen cherries, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla powder.

Stir constantly and mash the cherries until they become soft and the mixture thickens.

Remove the pot from heat and pour the cherry mixture over the base layer in the baking dish.

Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture evenly on top of the cherry layer.

Bake in the oven at 350°F for 30 minutes.

Allow to cool before serving.
