A simple low carb blueberry cobbler dessert with a gluten-free topping that tastes just like the real thing. It's super easy recipe that is quick to prepare.
Article Index
My husband and kids picked nine pounds of blueberries while I was at work last week. I really like blueberries and wish that the growing season was longer.
A friend has a large area of blueberry bushes made up of different varieties and was having trouble keeping the birds out of the nets. So, he invited my family over to pick as many berries as possible.
Although I froze a bunch, I still had a lot of fresh blueberries to use up. This is a an easy low carb gluten free blueberry cobbler dessert recipe that doesn't take much time or effort.
This is my favorite low carb cobbler recipe of all that I've tried. It tastes great and I doubt others who try it would guess it was gluten free with no sugar added.
How to Make the Cobbler
For the blueberry layer, it's just berries, lemon juice and a little low carb thickener. I don't usually add sweetener to the blueberries, but if you want a sweeter dessert you can add two tablespoons or more.
The topping is a blend of almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, and egg. Butter is drizzled over top to add flavor and fat.
You could use any fruit you like in this low carb cobbler, even frozen fruit would be fine if you don't have fresh. Berries are the lowest in carbs, but fruit in general should be used with caution during low carb induction and weight lose phases.
Watch the Fruit on Keto
If you are trying to lose weight, you may want to consume fruit in moderation because it can cause a stall in your weight loss. Since this low carb blueberry cobbler dessert is primarily fruit, the net carbs could be a bit high for those on stricter keto diets.
Fruit does tend to kick people out of ketosis so be aware of this. When I'm in a weight loss stage, I try not to eat more than a couple berries at a time. Blueberries do tend to be higher carb than other berries.
You can also replace the blueberries with strawberries to reduce carbs. Strawberry cobbler is just as delicious!
Serving Suggestions
This is a wonderful keto friendly low carb gluten free blueberry cobbler dessert. It's perfect for a get together with friends where you want to make sure you have a suitable dessert that you can enjoy.
I serve this delicious fruit cobbler to my family and they never question the fact that it is low carb and gluten free. Be sure to bake it until the top is brown and crunchy. That's the way we like it.
The thing I love about this recipe is that it's so quick and easy to put together. In the summer, it's even better with a scoop of low carb ice cream on top.
I keep the leftovers in the refrigerator. So, when I want a little snack, I put some in a bowl and microwave it to heat it up. It's best to enjoy this treat warm.
Gluten Free Low Carb Blueberry Cobbler Dessert Recipe
Since this is such a popular recipe for me and my family, I decided to put together a recipe video. As you can see in the clips, it won't take long to prepare this yummy low carb blueberry cobbler.
I did use frozen blueberries in the video. It's best to bake the low carb cobbler a little longer if the berries are frozen. But, in the summer, we usually have a ton of fresh berries so that's what I normally use.
You could also top this cobbler with a crisp or crumble. If you want some recipes for that, check out my rhubarb crumble and my rhubarb crisp.
I also have tons of other keto blueberry recipes like my healthy blueberry crisp recipe. And for another great recipe, check out the cheesecake bars at Real Balanced.

Can I use allulose?
Rosemary Arellano
New to Keto baking. This was the easiest recipe to make!! It was so delicious!! My husband loved it and is looking forward to having it again tonight. I’m going to look at all your recipes for more like this one. Keep it up!!
The Low Carb Cook
YAY! That's so great. Enjoy 🙂
Gerald
Can you use strawberry’s instead of blueberrys
Becki
Will this come out ok without using lemon juice?
The Low Carb Cook
Yes 🙂
Barbara Shannon
I do not have access to Xanthum Gum. Is it possible to use cornstarch to thicken fresh strawberries?
The Low Carb Cook
You can, however, cornstarch is not keto, sadly. If you want to keep the recipe low carb, you can use Psyllium husk or Konjac powder. Hope that helps!
Karen Masucci
I found this recipe mainly because I was looking for something gluten free, which this is.It turned out great! Have you made it with regular sugar??... if so would it be equal measurement?
April Iris McLeod
This looks great! I haven't tried it, yet, bc I have a couple of ? you might be able to help me with.
1) Are the carbs from the berries
2) I've seen recipes that use psyllium fiber in place of xanthan gum; have you ever tried this?
Thanks for making your recipes available!
Best,
April
Lisa MarcAurele
You can use psyllium as a thickener. It's not slimy like xanthan gum. Most of the carbs are from the blueberries, but some come from the low-carb flours and lemon juice.
Tracy
This was one of the best keto desserts I’ve made. I just sprinkled some
Chia seeds over the blueberries and that seemed to do the trick. I also added cinnamon. Delicious
Gail
This recipe was, indeed, exceedingly tart. Also, be sure to drizzle the butter evenly over the flour mixture or you'll wind up with raw flour on top of your berries like I did. I do not plan to try this again but if I were to repeat it, I'd try doubling the sugar in the berries. Also, I'd experiment with adding the butter to the flour mixture while it was in the bowl then spooning it onto the berries.
Larry Boudolf
Does this recipe call for one 18 oz bag of frozen blueberries or two ?
Lisa MarcAurele
Just measure out 3 cups or so.
Leanne Dyck
Very good! I made the regular berry crisp for my family this week and was wanting a sugar free one for me. I will make this again for sure! Super easy and delicious!
Susie Ford
This was so easy and yummy!! I did use blueberries and the strawberry/raspberry/blueberry medley together all frozen and it may have been a little more than 3 cups. I also sprinkled the extra stevia over the berries but it really did not need it. I baked for 40 minutes or so, I am sure the fact that they were frozen extended the time.
Lili
Hi, can I subtitude the almond flour with all coconut flour for allergy reason. What would the measurement be? Thanks!
Lisa MarcAurele
It depends of the absorbency of your coconut flour. But generally, you'd add about 3-4 tablespoons in place of the almond flour.
Jenn
This was super easy to make! I did sprinkle 3 tablespoons of sugar substitute on the top of my blueberries. I also added 1/3 of sweetener instead of 1/4 because I like my desserts sweet and it dirtied one less measuring cup. Very good and so so easy. Thanks, I will make it again!
Kat
These were really good,I added blueberries and Lilly's chocolate chips.
Elizabeth O'Neill
hey just making this and used the metic metre. for the sugar for metric it says 182 grams. which is way more sugar than 1/4. heres hoping its not to sugary. silly me didnt even realized
Lisa MarcAurele
That's way too much. It should be more like 60g.
Toye Simmons
I have no idea where your 5 net carbs come in. Mine came out to 13 net carbs. It looks really good, but I didn’t notice how high the carbs are until I already made it.
Lisa MarcAurele
I don't count erythritol as it's non-impacting.
Marie
What exactly is that gum that you use? I have heard bad things about that. Can it be replaced with anything else? What is it used for in this recipe?
Lisa MarcAurele
Xanthan gum is fine to use in small quantities. But if you prefer not to use it, guar gum or glucomannan powder are great keto-friendly thickeners. If you don't mind the extra carbs, you can use arrowroot powder.
Jenn
I use about a tablespoon of chia seeds instead of the xanthan gum
Jerry
Made for the first time today. Very, very good!
Easy to make start to scraping the bowl!
Sarah
I’ll be honest, I did NOT have high hopes - I’ve been doing keto for a while and I know that anything “bready” never tastes quite right. Which is why I was VERY surprised and pleased with this recipe - even my boyfriend said it tasted like a regular cobbler. The only changes I made were that I used raspberries instead of blueberries, and I added some sweetener to the raspberries. It was DELICIOUS - and especially good with a bit of butter pecan keto ice cream!! I’m already planning on making a second one.
Ann Meola-Schoppelry
Can I only use Almond Flour and NOT coconut for the Blueberry Cobbler?
Lisa MarcAurele
Yes. That should work. I only like the texture better when using both.
Heather Black
What would the measurement be if using only almond flour? I'm out if coconut flour. ☹️
Melissa
Hi,
My husband is craving peach cobbler. Now I know it’s not exactly Keto but trying something special for our anniversary.
Do you think I could switch blueberries for fresh peaches?
Lisa MarcAurele
It should work, but you may want to reduce the sweetener as peaches are typically sweeter than berries.
Karen Callahan
I do not usually use other sweetners. I like to use coconut sugar,Maple syrup. Could I do that with this recipe and how much.
Thanks so much.
Karen
Lisa MarcAurele
Any sweetener should work and feel free to adjust the sweetness to taste.
Divina Shields
I made this recipe yesterday, it was very good. Gone in a couple of hours. Baking it again today and it’s cooling. Thanks!
Julie
If I use all coconut flour, will adding 2 extra eggs be enough Thanks
Lisa MarcAurele
I wouldn't use as much coconut flour as the almond flour amount. Then I'd add one extra egg at a time if needed.
Carol
I’m making the recipe right now, but I think their may be something wrong with your conversion from us to metric or a typo.
I like to weigh my ingredients, so I switched over to metric and it says 182 g of sweetener! The us version is only 1/4 cup, which according to my scale far less than 182 g. It more like 54 grams
Carol
Just saw your note about the sweetener being cut way back to 1/4 cup—maybe it wasn’t adjusted in the metric side?
Lisa MarcAurele
That does sound off. A serving of sweetener (about 1 teaspoon) is only 5g so that would be about 60g for 1/4 cup.
Linda
Very, very good.
I was pleasantly surprised! Very tasty and can be kept in the fridge for a few days. Will definitely make again!
Linda S
It truly is a five star treat!
Lesley Baker
I made this yesterday for a family dinner. It was delicious and a big hit. The only modification I made was I used THM Baking Blend for the Coconut Flour measurement. I'll definitely make this again!
Jennifer
This was delicious and very easy. I call it blueberry crumble - because that's what my husband had requested.????
rdapaul@gmail.com
Could I use cornstarch in place of Xanthan gum?
Lisa MarcAurele
Cornstarch can be used if you aren't watching carbs but you'll need more of it.
Vj
Hi Lisa, I am addicted to this wonderful recipe...the flavors, Yum, and not sugary tasting...I can still savor the subtle taste of wild blueberries with the crunchy nuttiness of the almond & hint of coconut.
Now that's how a real gourmet dessert should taste and create excitement to your taste buds. I usually overeat a dessert, feel bloated & feel guilty for craving sugar. Lol
As you can imagine covid19 lockdown has kept the "apron strings around me" cooking/baking as I try to use up access fruits & vegetables, I bought in abundance due to waiting in lineups to grocery stores. Shopping all at once for 2wks supply, cause I have lost patience with long long grocery stores lineups and the shock of finding empty shelves, even now after 2 mths lockdown. I am going to be working from home and my time is valuable!
This recipe is delicious that I couldn't help but have some for breakfast this morning with my grapefruit. It taste so good, I just knew I had to share & THANK YOU..????blessings to you & your new creations in your kitchen.
Vj...Etobicoke On, Canada ????????
Lisa MarcAurele
Thanks for the note Vj. I've been known to eat this cobbler for breakfast too. I love making it over the summer after we pick tons of fresh berries. So glad you enjoy the recipe too!
Kristi
Any way to do this without egg? My son is allergic and I'm having trouble finding keto treats for him because everything has egg! Maybe just add extra butter?
Lisa MarcAurele
You could also try replacing the coconut flour with almond flour since coconut flour is what needs the egg.
Melissa
Can u use all coconut flour? My son can’t have nuts
Lisa MarcAurele
You can, but you may need to use less and possibly one more egg and additional butter.
Katie Anderson
Thanks for the recipe. It inspired me to adapt one of my own. I have been using cup4cup and cassava flour for sometime now so I modified the amounts to:
3/8 c4c
3/8 cassava
1/4 coconut
My recipe uses milk which makes it a more cakelike consistency and may also be a good liquid addition to the coconut flour.
Erica Chysyk
Have you tried with coconut milk?
Lisa MarcAurele
A little coconut milk should be fine to add.
Nathan Barnett
Made it today was Great
Vicki H.
Hello Lisa,
Cobbler sounds great!
I plan to make in the morning in 9 individual baking cups. Any idea how long I should bake them?
Thank you!
Lisa MarcAurele
I'd check after 10-15 minutes.
Stephanie
I love you're recipes. I have purchased the soup book, The Ice Cream book and the beverage. The first recipe I ever had of yours was the best low carb chocolate cake with the buttercream frosting. Absolutely fabulous I make this all the time have recommended it and copied your link to different people who are looking struggling on keto and want dessert. I love the idea of these mug cakes and mug muffins, but do not like using the microwave. I saw in your notes that it said you could bake them in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes but I did not see a temperature? Would you let me know what temperature to cook these different mug cakes mug muffins. Thank you
Lisa MarcAurele
I'd bake them at 350°F until they test done.
Bert
I don’t like lemon juice in any thing. Can I just use water?
Lisa MarcAurele
You can just leave it out.
Kathryn
Easy to make. I use 1/2 konjac root instead of 1/4 Xantham gum. It’s in the oven now! I’ll update when it comes out but raw materials taste yummy!!
Dee
Can you use all purpose gluten free flower in place of the almond and coconut flour? What would the ratio be?
Lisa MarcAurele
It should work to replace the same amount of combined almond & coconut flour with the same amount of all-purpose flour.
Jane
Delicious and easy!! I mad this this afternoon, but swapped out the blueberries with raspberries to make it even lower carb. It's a hit!
Souzan
Hello there
I would like to try this recipe but can I subtitude psyllium husk powder instead Xanthan gum?
And what is the comparable measurement?
Thank you
Lisa MarcAurele
Psyllium husk or chia seeds can usually be used to thicken. But you'd have to experiment to get the right amount. I'd probably try a teaspoon or so and adjust from there.
Jason
It was good all around. I added blackberries which made it more tart. I think it needs more than 1/4 cup but I used monk fruit.
Also what’s your suggestion to making the crust more crunchy?
Lisa MarcAurele
You can try putting it under the broiler to brown things up more, but I don't know if that will make it crunchier. You can also try using replacing the coconut flour with the same amount of almond flour as well.
Danielle
What about adding some kind of nut to the mixture? That will help make it crunchy
Lisa MarcAurele
I've added pecans to other recipes.
Jackie Martin
This one of my favourite recipes. I've also successfully baked while camping in a cast iron dutch oven 🙂 Thanks!
Pam
I just made this today - it was delicious! I used two cups of blueberries and 1 cup blackberries. I also was craving something super sweet, so I doubled the swerve in the topping as well as sprinkling a tablespoon on the berries. This was too much as the berries were pretty ripe and sweet, but it still tasted great, just needs some coffee to go with it 🙂 This is a winner and I will definitely make it again!
Melissa Winspear
Easy and simply delicious ❤️
Priscilla
I’ve never left a comment on a recipe before but I had to after trying this! It is so amazing and delicious! We switched to a keto lifestyle a few months ago and we had been trying to find a yummy dessert not just for us but for everything and this is it! There is no difference to us using this recipe or a regular cobbler and it’s so much healthier. We are so happy and thrilled with this recipe, we didn’t change a thing. Thank you!!
Lisa
Thanks for the feedback on the cobbler! So glad it worked out so well.
Sherry
I made this cobbler today and it was delicious. The topping was a bit grainy so I'll use Carbquik (and probably blackberries) next time, but I doubt today's cobbler will last long around here.
I used erythritol and xylitol as sweeteners, and because the blueberries were frozen, baking time was 45 minutes.
Thanks for a great recipe!
Lisa
Thanks for the feedback!
Monica
Do you think a mixture of strawberries and blueberries would work?
Lisa
Yes. I've done this recipe with a mixture of berries. You can use any single berry or a mix of them.
Monica
Thanks! I'm going to make this tonight with fresh blueberries and strawberries. I can't wait!
Lisa
Enjoy!
Ana
This recipe is great! 🙂 Made it with different fruit and used honey, grounded almond nut flour, coconut sprinkles not real flour and grounded walnut. No xantan gum. It is totally unnecessary. It turned out great. It's perfect for summer when there is so much fruit to choose from. Thank you for the recipe. 🙂 🙂
Lisa
You're welcome Ana! The xanthan isn't needed unless you want to thicken up the blueberry.
Rhonda
This recipe is so delicious. It is quick and easy. Everyone who has tried it LOVES it. It is a definite go-to recipe. Thanks for sharing!!
Lisa
I'm glad it was such a hit.
Terry
I would like to make this cobbler today for friends and family...it looks yummy...But I have a friend that is allergic to coconut. Can I use all almond flout? if so how much would I use, or an alternative...
Lisa
You can try almond flour, but amount may be a bit more.
Donna
Im never using another recipe! Just delicious. Thanks.
Lisa
You're very welcome Donna!
Ms vette
This is the BEST keto item I have tried. This cobbler is woohoo good i am literally savoring every bite. Thank you !!!
Connie
Hi Lisa, I just tried this recipe! It is delicious....and so quick n simple. My hubby and I have been eating the KETO diet for 2 1/2 months and I decided after weeks of meat, salad and vegetables it was time for some dessert! This is really yummy! Thanks so much for the great recipe. Can't wait to try more of your recipes.
aqui
Different to me but looks very good, gave an immense desire to eat.
Mollie
Made this today for my big family. I needed to pretty much double the recipe. I used 2-18oz packages of fresh blueberries, 1/2T of cornstarch (didn’t have xanthan gum), 1 1/3 Cup Almond flour, scant 1/2 cup of coconut flour (because I don’t really like it much), 2/3C of Swerve (it’s a very sweet sugar alternative), 2 eggs, and about 10T of melted butter, cooked in a 9x13 dish. Served with vanilla ice cream, of course. Perfect! Thanks for the recipe!
Marie
Hi Lisa, Thanks for the yummy looking recipe. I'm going to try it, but is the xanthan gum a must?
Lisa
Not in this recipe.
Julir
Do you think you can replace the almond and coconut flour with carbquick?
Lisa
Yes. It's typically a 1 for 1 replacement.
Tracy
I want to try this recipe but I was wondering if the carb count is different using frozen berries instead of the fresh ones?
Thanks
Lisa
Carb count should be about the same. Frozen berries do tend to swell a bit so for the same amount, carbs may be a bit less.
Marissa
Can this recipe still written without the xanthan gum? I'm having trouble finding it...
Lisa
Xanthan gum isn't necessary in the recipe.
deb
thank you I cant find it without driving an hour...
Jennifer Adair
I found it at Wal Mart, and we live in a very rural area. You can always get it on Amazon or maybe on Thrive.
Cindylee Machado
Made this yesterday and used chia seeds rather than xanthan gum to thicken. Also used coconut oil rather than butter but not that much. So so delicious. Topped it with coconut cream. So easy also. Thank you for the recipe.
Lisa
I'm glad the subs worked out for you!
Marie
Cindylee did you just sprinkle the chia seeds on or did you soak them first?
Charlotte Lehmeier
can I use a 8x8 pan instead>
Lisa
Yes. I use an 8x8 sometimes with no issue.
Kathy Atkinson
I made this tonight and it was delicious! My husband and I both really enjoyed it. I used one cup of swerve and it was a little sweet for me so next time I’ll try maybe 2/3 cup. Regardless, it’s a great recipe and I’ll be using it again.
Thank you
Lisa
I created that recipe soon after coming off sugar. These days, I only use half the amount sweetener or less.
Kristen
Thank you for sharing! I'm new to Keto and am also a vegetarian so been a bit tricky. I don't usually use eggs but have found it almost impossible not to. My blueberry cobbler came out very dry, as I read another person's did. I used frozen blueberries, melted butter on top - still very dry on top. I also just ran out of swerve (which I love) and used some Pyure granulated packets. I used less than 1/4 cup and it does not leave a good after taste:-/ Your photo looked so scrumptious and mine definitely didn't turn out as well. What could I have done wrong?
Lisa
If you cut back on the sweetener, you typically need to add more liquid to make up for the difference.
Alma Keller
Can this recipe be used as is but using regular flour or would other adjustments be needed?
Lisa
You can use regular flour to replace the almond and coconut flour if you'd like.
Kathy
Just came out of the oven. I only changed the sweetener part & used Pyure. Very good. Will make again & try different berries.
Lisa
Pyure is one of my favorite sweeteners. And, I love that it's easily found at a local Walmart.
Jessica
How much Pyure did you use!? Going to make this today!
Lisa
You'll want to use about 1/2 cup.
Maria Pratt
Could I use the THM baking blend instead?
Lisa
That should work fine in this recipe.
DonnaL
I've noticed that you list the sugar alcohols on this recipe. Can some of them be subtracted from the total carbs? Thanks for you recipes.
Lisa
I'm pretty sure I did not include the sugar alcohols in the calculation. There is sugar coming from the blueberries.
Sonja
I made this according to the directions using frozen strawberries and 1 cup of erythritol even though that seemed like a lot. It is so sickeningly sweet... I usually like a very sweet dessert but this is just not even edible. I will use less than half of the sweetener next time but does anyone know how I could perhaps rescue what I made? No one else had this problem? It's granulated erythritol not powdered, could that be why?
Lisa
Sorry about that. This is one of my very first recipes before I became adapted to the low carb lifestyle. My taste for sweets was much stronger back then. I will make a note in the recipe.
Mary
Lisa, You did a nice job with this recipe!
Congratulations!
Lisa
Thanks Mary!
Lisa
And, the granular erythritol is likely stronger than powdered.
Haylee
So should we use powdered or granulated?
Lisa
Either should work.
Ruth
Use it in your oatmeal in the morning for breakfast, or make coffee cake or shortcake and eat them together with a fork
Lisa
Sounds yummy!
Ellen
I did that once and I just made another batch with no sweetener. I just mixed nobody knew the diffrence
Erika
Add non sweetened whipped cream to your serving, it cuts down on the sweetness.
Meddy
I am often very disappointed with low carb desserts. I just tried this one and WOW, it was absolutely delish! It looks exactly like your picture too 🙂
Do you have a website?
Lisa
Thanks! This is my website!
Phyllis
I made your recipe with huckleberries and it is delicious. They were freshly picked and I didn't have blueberries.
Lisa
I've never had huckleberries. It's a recipe that works with just about any berry.
Billie Vanderburg
My Dad always said huckleberries were just blueberries with bigger seeds. Lol.
Lisa
LOL!
Korri
I'm new at the low carb dieting. What granulated sugar substitute did you use?
Lisa
I like stevia erythritol mixes like Sukrin and Pyure, but many people use Swerve.
Pat ILER
I purchased stevia erythritol from Vitacost. How much do you use for a tablespoon of sugar? Or a 1/4 cup of sugar? Do you have a list of how to use it? Would appreciate knowing how much to use.
Am anxious to try your Low Carb Blueberry Cobbler!
Thank you!!
Pat
Lisa
It depends on the brand. Some stevia erythritol blends are twice as sweet as sugar and others are the same sweetness.
cara
Can not WAIT to make this!
Always looking for something to have with my coffee Saturday or Sunday mornings!
You are awesome! Thank you!!
Lisa
Hope you love the cobbler as much as I do!
Ashley
Not a fan of al,one flour, do you think this would be ok with just 1C of coconut flour?
Ashley
Almond ?
Lisa
You'd have to use less and double the eggs. You may need more liquid too.
rosalyn
so easy and delicious made this twice now, great with ice cream or cool whip too!
Lisa
So glad it was a hit with you!
Marcy
I made this tonight for dessert. Mixed peaches, blueberries, and blackberries. Used Guar Gum for thickener. I did not read directions first and mixed all the ingredients together, minus the fruit, guar gum, and lemon juice. The topping cooked up like dumplings. I just mashed them up, put foil on pan, and cooked another 12 minutes. It turned out great!
SHELLEY RASCOE
Is it necessary to use the xanthum gum? I can't find it anywhere. What would happen if you didn't use it?
Shelley
Lisa
Without xanthan gum, the blueberry filling will be thin as the gum is a thickener.
Min
Hi! If I wanted to use psylliun husk or chia seeds instead of xanthan gum, which would be better and how much would I use?
Lisa
You could try 1/2-1 teaspoon and adjust from there.
Kimberly Dobbs
Try amazon
Patricia
Health food stores and Kroger grocery stores have it
Ellie
I read that this was 8g of Net Carbs. What would be the amount for Total Grams of carbs? This looks amazing!
Lisa
I just re-analyzed the recipe. The total carbs per serving is 7.1g with 1.2g of fiber. So, it's 5.9g net carbs.
Kelly
Hi, I really love your recipes! and I hope in the future that you will have a chocolate or blueberry low carb turnover recipe and a low strudel recipe.
Lisa
Thanks Kelly! I would love to have those recipes. So yes, perhaps they will come soon. 🙂
Jan Jones
This recipe is AMAZING!!!! I made it for my family once, and am taking it to a potluck today. There will be candy bar pie there as well, so this will be a much yummier and healthier alternative.
Lisa
Thanks for sharing and joining the discussion on this recipe! It really helps out others who may be on the fence for trying it out.
Jen
I made this today & it's very dry. I think it would be better if you added softened butter to the dry mixture. It would hold together better & wouldn't be like sand sprinkled over the blueberries.
Lisa
Did you drizzle the butter over the topping before baking? You have to make sure you do it all over the top. I've made this numerous times and it's never been dry. I suppose as an alternative to drizzling the butter, it could be cut into the topping before sprinkling on.
Sheryl
I'm currently dairy free. Would this recipe work with melted coconut oil in place of butter? (I so miss butter!!!)
Lisa
I think it would be okay. Butter flavored coconut oil might give a better flavor.
Nic
Hey,
I would love to try this but I can't get Xantham Gum here in Germany.
Any Ideas how to substitude it?
Regards,
Nic
Lisa
It's only added as a thickener. Any low carb thickening ingredient can be used instead. You could leave it out if you don't mind a more watery fruit filling.
Tina
Psyllium husks work better than xantham gum in baking.
Lisa
That's great to know Tina! My bottle of xanthan gum is almost gone so I'll start experimenting with psyllium husks since I have plenty.
Marti Gramlich
I used tapioca or you could use chia also
Lisa
Chia could be used. Tapioca is pretty starchy so I avoid it due to the higher carb count.
Eda
Do you think xylitol would work?
And if using sucralose, should I reduce the amount? I feel that it is sweeter than suggar..
Lisa
Xylitol would be fine. I'd try about 1 cup or a little less. Same for using Splenda.
Karen
I am allergic to any kind of fake sweetener, how would I make this, it looks fabulous!
Lisa
I actually don't use artificial sweeteners anymore. Stevia is the best for those who are sensitive to sugar alternatives, but it takes some getting used to by itself. You could use 24 packets of pure stevia or any all natural sugar replacement. Lately, I like using Pyure brand all-purpose sweetener which is an organic mix of stevia and erythritol that is twice as sweet as sugar. In this recipe, 1/2 cup of Pyure all-purpose would be used.
Caitlin
I made this tonight. It was AMAZING! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS, so these recipes are what I'll be eating for the rest of my life. This blueberry cobbler was irresistible. My top seems to have come out a bit more crumbly than yours, but it was still fantastic. Whether served a-la-mode with no sugar added, half fat vanilla ice cream, or just alone (I definitely had two servings, one each way), it was excellent!

Glad you enjoyed it as much as I did. I may try a mix of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries next time.

Looks delicious!
