The Magic of Blackberries

Blackberries are the star of this recipe, and for good reason. These plump, juicy berries aren’t just delicious—they’re also incredibly nutritious. Packed with antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and dietary fiber, blackberries are a smart choice for any dessert. They’re naturally low in sugar, making them perfect for a low-carb diet.

If you can’t find fresh blackberries, don’t worry! Frozen blackberries work just as well. Just make sure they’re unsweetened. The beauty of this recipe is its flexibility; you can easily substitute blackberries with other berries like raspberries, blueberries, or even a mix of your favorites.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delicious cobbler:

2 cups fresh blackberries: Plump and juicy blackberries work best, but frozen (unsweetened) blackberries will also do.
1/4 cup almond flour: A low-carb alternative to traditional flour. Substitute with sunflower seed flour if you have nut allergies.
1/4 cup coconut flour: Absorbs moisture perfectly. If unavailable, use more almond flour or flaxseed meal.

1/2 cup sweetener: Choose erythritol or stevia for a low-carb option. Adjust to your sweetness preference.
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted: Adds richness. Coconut oil works for a dairy-free version.
2 large eggs: Binds the ingredients. Replace with flax eggs for a vegan version.

1 teaspoon vanilla extract: Opt for pure vanilla for the best flavor.
1 teaspoon baking powder: Helps the cobbler rise. Ensure it’s fresh.
1/2 teaspoon salt: Enhances all the flavors.

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon: Adds warmth. Substitute with nutmeg if desired.

Simple Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create a cobbler that’s as delightful as it is healthy:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to create an ideal environment for even baking.

Step 2: Prepare the Baking Dish

Lightly coat an 8×8-inch baking dish with butter or coconut oil to keep the cobbler from sticking during baking.

Step 3: Sweeten the Blackberries

Combine the blackberries with 1 tablespoon of your chosen sweetener in a bowl. Allow them to rest briefly so the berries release their natural flavors and juices.

Step 4: Blend the Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, remaining sweetener, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. This ensures the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 5: Add the Wet Ingredients

Make a space in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir gently but thoroughly until the mixture forms a smooth and uniform batter.

Step 6: Layer the Batter and Berries

Spread the batter into the greased baking dish, smoothing it into an even layer. Scatter the prepared blackberries on top, allowing them to nestle naturally into the batter.

Step 7: Bake

Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes. The cobbler is done when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8: Cool and Serve

Remove the Blackberry Cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. This resting time helps the dessert set before slicing. Serve it warm or at room temperature for the best flavor.

Chef Walter’s Pro Tips

Serving Suggestions

Pair the cobbler with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of low-carb vanilla ice cream. The contrast in temperatures and textures is simply divine!

Add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom for a spiced twist.
