I love the seasonal fruits and veggies of summer.  This time of year in Chico you’ll find a fresh fruit stand on almost every corner.  On my way home from the gym yesterday I pulled off the road to one of the stands and picked up an abundance of strawberries, blackberries, and cherries.  I knew the blackberries would go bad before we could eat them all and the first thing that came to mind was cobbler…  Here’s what we came up with.

berry cobbler

Blackberry Cobbler

3 cups of fresh blackberries

1 1/2 cups almond meal (finely ground almonds)

1 omega 3 enriched egg

2 tbsp coconut oil

A drizzle of raw organic honey

Cinnamon to taste

“So Delicious” coconut milk

Preheat oven to 350. Pour the blackberries into a pie pan.  In a small bowl mix together the egg, almond meal, and coconut oil, and shake in a bunch of cinnamon.  Stir well.  The mixture will be really thick and clumpy.  If you wish, drizzle a bit of raw organic honey on top of the blackberries.  By hand (or if you have a 2 year old to help you, that works just as well…) crumble the almond meal mixture on top of the blackberries and bake in your pre-heated oven for 35 minutes.  Serve in bowls with cold “So Delicious” brand coconut milk poured over the top.  Yes, it’s addicting, but life’s too short to not eat cobbler now and then…

Enjoy!

    YUM!!! In our kitchen, blackberries usually end up in an all-frozen-fruit smoothie with strawberries, pineapple, bananas, raspberries and whatnot, but I will try this one for sure. Thanks, Sarah!

      You could try it – it would give it a whole different flavor. I liked the almond meal because of the nutty taste with the berries was a great compliment!

    I made this and it was GREAT!! I do think that I would increase the fruit:topping ratio though.

    I made my own coconut milk topping by taking a can of regular coconut milk, adding half a can of water and about 4 TBS of honey. My wife doesn’t really like coconut milk, but loved this for a topping!

    Thanks for the recipes! I have loved everyone I have tried.

    Quick question, what would I do to change the recipe if I wanted it to a peach, apple or cherry cobbler instead, is there a conversion to change the recipe for the those fruits instead. If you cant tell not a fan of blackberries.

    Reply
    • Sarah says

      July 9, 2010 at 9:07 am

      Hey Daron! I would just use the same amount of any other fruit instead of the blackberries. I did this cobbler with bluberries the other day and it was great! Peaches would be awesome too. If you use peaches, I would actually double the amount, peal the peaches and chop into bite size pieces, and mix the pieces with a couple tbsp of cinnamon and then top with the almond meal crumble. I’m going to try that myself!!

      Hi Jenn,
      I’m so glad you are enjoying the blog! As far as the almonds, I would suggest using them raw before you blend them. If you have a vita mix or a food processer, that’s the best. Good luck!

    Hi Sarah –

    One more question on the almonds…do you peel them before making almond powder, or just leave the skins on?

    Thanks!

    • Sarah says

      July 13, 2010 at 2:24 pm

      Hey Brian,
      When I am making my own almond meal I just use raw almonds, and no I don’t peel or blanch them or anything. I just toss them into my food processor. Most of the time I but already prepared almond meal from Trader Joe’s. You can also typically find almond meal or almond flour at most health food stores and even safeway and raleys in the health food section carries it as well.

      Hi Hannah!
      I haven’t tried it yet myself but I would suggest using coconut flour in place of the almond meal. You might need to adjust the amount of liquid (maybe less). Let me know if you try it and how it turns out!

    Oh. My. Goodness. This cobbler was AMAZING! I used blueberries and made a whipped cream out of coconut milk, vanilla and cinnamon to go on top. It was so good, my brain was simply not convinced that I was only eating some fruit, almonds, a little honey, egg and coconut. I can’t wait to try this with like every summer fruit I can think of! I just found your blog yesterday and I am loving everything on here!! Thank you so much 🙂

    Is there a substitute for the almond meal? I went to the grocery today it was 15$ for a small bag of almond meal, seems a bit much. Hopefully the health food store has some…

    Also, great website! Hopefully it continues to grow and new recipes are added!

      HI Sam,
      Not sure where you live, but if you have a Trader Joe’s around, you can buy almond meal there for half that price, in fact I think it’s closer to $5 a bag. If not, you can also make your own almond meal by simply throwing a bunch of almonds in a food processor or blender until they are finely ground. A substitute, although I’m not sure how well it would work for this recipe, would be coconut flour, but honestly it’s typically more expensive than almond meal.

      I’m glad you like the website, and don’t worry, I won’t stop posting recipes!! : )

    • Sarah says

      September 16, 2010 at 4:53 pm

      Hi Destiny, I would try subbing a little bit of coconut milk, organic butter, or even just coconut oil. If you can add just enough liquid to get the almond meal to hold together, but not be like a batter, just crumbly, I bet it would work fine without the eggs! Give it a shot with the butter or the coconut oil and see how that works! I may try it myself, I bet both would add a nice flavor to the almond meal as an added bonus.

    I tried this recipe today for a party and it was a major hit! I made some modifications so it would feed more people – about 6.5 cups of berries, 4 tbs coconut oil, 3 eggs and 3 cup sliced almonds which I processed. It filled my 9 x 13 pyrex perfectly.

    Made this last night for dessert. We had to use half blackberries and half blueberries. I also used canned coconut milk. I like the thickness and the coconut flavor it has so much better than the carton one. It was so good!! It reminded me a bit of warm cereal in the morning. I think when we are craving warm cereal, I will be making this.

    Good afternoon ~

    Sarah, I just received your book yesterday and while flipping through I noticed several of the recipes call for almond meal. Are you aware of any substitutes for almond meal? I’m dying to try the “Berry Good Cobbler” especially, but my daughter is allergic to nuts (all that we’ve tried so far).

    I made this to recipe the first time and loved it, then i decided to try to jazz it up and added a white peach to the blackberries. I also sprinkled cinnamon on top of the “crust” before baking. Instead of using coconut milk the second time, i topped it with a little bit of Blue Diamond Original Almond milk, it is a little sweeter than the cocnut milk and pairs nicely with the almond flavor of the crust and sweetness of the peach. All in all i liked the second time around much better, the peaches were sinfully healthy!

    Another hit in the household. We made the cobbler last night with the berries we had on hand, blackberries, strawberries and blueberries. The house smelled so good while this was cooking. We were all thinking of ideas of what we might like to add next time or how we could modify for other types of fruit. Very yummy!! This was probably a lifesaver since my husband has been craving some sort of comfort food. This gave him a treat without deviating from our newly found paleo lifestyle.

    I made this tonight and it was yummy. Question about coconut oil… should you melt it before using. I used it as a paste and it formed wax balls in the “crust” mix. Maybe that is the point, but I’m a little new to the “oil” that’s not liquid out of the bottle.

      December 11, 2011 at 8:49 pm

      I usually melt my coconut oil first prior to using it with baked goods but having it formed into little wax like balls for this crust is normal since it’s more of a “crumble” than a “crust.” : )

        I melted the coconut oil. I wasn’t sure what to do with it since it wasn’t specified. Is the “crumble” supposed to be crunchy or soft?

    I know you can use coconut flour as a substitute for almond flour, but has anyone successfully made this with coconut flour? I am allergic to nuts and I have not successfully been able to do the conversion right as coconut flour is WAY more absorbent than almond flour is. I totally wrecked the Paleo Apple Muffins trying to substitute. Can anyone help? Either with a recipe or conversion equation that they have found works? Thanks!
