I have a special place in my heart for blackberry cobbler. In Kentucky, when blackberries were in season, my mom and I would walk up the road from our house and pick a bunch of them. We would come directly home, and she would make a cobbler. I’ve shared this quick little recipe with her, and she approves. She has even made it with strawberries!
• 1½ cups fresh blackberries
• ¼ teaspoon liquid stevia (see Note)
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup finely ground blanched almond flour
• ¼ cup (½ stick) cold salted butter, cubed
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• Whipped Cream, for serving (optional)
1. Grease a 2-cup microwave-safe baking dish.
2. In a small bowl, gently combine the blackberries, stevia, and vanilla extract, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
3. In a small bowl, use a fork to stir together the almond flour and baking powder, then add the butter and continue stirring with the fork until a crumbly mixture forms. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the blackberries.
4. Microwave for 1½ to 2 minutes, checking every 30 seconds, until the blackberries are bubbly and the topping is lightly browned; microwave cook times vary according to wattage. Allow the cobbler to cool for 10 minutes. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
Notes:
If your blackberries are particularly tart, you might want to increase the amount of sweetener.
