Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds blueberries (about 6 cups or 3 pints), fresh or frozen
- ¼ cup maple syrup or honey
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot starch or cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 ½ cups (225 grams) blanched almond flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon fine salt
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- zest from 1 large lemon (around 1 tablespoon)
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, just melted
- 2 tablespoons plain whole-milk greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- optional: 1 teaspoon turbinado sugar (raw sugar) for sprinkling on top
- vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a 9-inch square baking dish, rinse and drain the blueberries, removing any stems. Combine blueberries, maple syrup, arrowroot starch, lemon juice, and cinnamon, stirring until well mixed. Bake for about 25 minutes until bubbling around the edges.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together granulated sugar and lemon zest, rubbing them together. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk to combine.
- In the small bowl, combine melted butter, yogurt, and egg. Whisk until smooth, then pour into the dry ingredients and stir until a cohesive dough forms.
- Dollop the topping over the hot blueberry filling, using a spoon to spread it evenly. Sprinkle turbinado sugar (if using) over the top.
- Bake for 16 to 20 minutes until filling bubbles and the topping is lightly golden. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
Notes
This cobbler is best served warm.
