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 your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- For the filling, rinse and drain the blueberries, removing any stems. Combine the blueberries, maple syrup, starch, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a 9-inch square baking dish, stirring until combined. Bake for about 25 minutes until bubbling.
- Prepare the topping by mixing flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix sugar and lemon zest, rubbing together to enhance flavor. Add the sugar mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk together.
- Combine melted butter, yogurt, and egg in a smaller bowl, whisking until smooth. Add to the dry mixture and stir until a cohesive dough forms.
- Spoon the dough in dollops over the hot filling, using another spoon to help transfer each dollop. Sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake for 16 to 20 minutes, until filling bubbles and top turns golden. Let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy with ice cream, if desired.
Notes
Ensure blueberries are clean and properly drained to avoid excess water in the filling.
This cobbler pairs wonderfully with vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt for breakfast the next day.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
