Blackberry Cobbler
Posted on June 18, 2010 by Sarah in Food, MealPlan, News | 39 Comments
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.
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!
Blackberries and So Delicious coconut milk? Sounds and looks like heaven!
This sounds amazing! I’ve just started experimenting with coconut flour. Think you could sub coconut flour for the almond meal in this and other recipes?
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 loved that the prep was minimal for such a great desert. I almost felt guilty eating it, almost!

this. looks. amazing. as always, thanks sarah!
you did it again!
great job!
I will be making this very soon. Blackberry cobbler is my absolute favorite and we just finished picking wild ones here in Oklahoma!
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.
Made it and it was gone! My daughter says she thinks the “crust” would make a great cereal, so I am going to experiment with that tonight.
Hey Melissa,
That is exactly what we thought about the crust too – yummy cereal!! Let me know how it goes if you do try it that way!

Do you use original or unsweetened coconut milk? Thanks!
Hey CC! I use the unsweetened coconut milk. : )
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.
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 Sarah,
We love your blog and have enjoyed all of the recipes that we have tried! I want to make my own almond meal and was wondering if you toast the almonds first or just blend them raw. Thanks for the awesome recipes!
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!
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.
I’m new to the site and this is the second thing I’ve eaten (and loved!)… I absolutely adored this recipe and can’t wait to have leftovers tomorrow!! It was so good and the coconut milk adds SO much!
This looks wonderful! We do have nut allergies in our family, so what would you recommend we use in the place of the almond meal?
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!! : )
Can you use frozen berries?
Hi Veronica,
Yes you can use frozen berries! I made this cobbler with frozen blueberries for a dinner party a few weeks ago and it turned out great.
Hi Sarah,
When using the frozen berries, do they need to thaw first?
Thanks!
Hey Melissa,
I did not thaw my berries but just extended the cooking time by about 5 minutes. : )
How bad would it be to try this for breakfast in the morning? =-) Looks great!
Christie – just eat is with some protein – and not every morning.. Ha Ha!!
I just read The Paleo Diet and he says not to use coconut oil which surprised me…and makes no mention of coconut or coconut milk. I hope it is legal. Cant wait to try some of your recipes.
Hi Chris,
Coconut oil is excellent and legal, I suggest you pick up Robb Wolf’s new book Paleo Solution – lots of great up to date paleo info!
