Preparation and cooking overview

This keto fruit cobbler comes together quickly with little to no fuss. All you have to do is mix raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries and cover it with almond flour dough. Next, pop it in the oven, and you will get a delicious dessert within 35 minutes.

Chef's note

Feel free to own this recipe and add your flairs. For instance, toss some unsweetened shredded coconut into the crust if you love tropical flavors. Or sprinkle pecans or walnuts on top for extra crunch. You can even bake your cobbler in individual ramekins for a personalized dessert experience. They are great for parties!

🥧 Ingredients for this keto cobbler recipe

Here are a few simple ingredients to make the perfect sugar-free berry cobbler:

Filling

  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar-free sweetener (we use Swerve)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour (we use Bob's Red Mill)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar-free sweetener (we use Swerve)
  • 1 stick salted butter, softened

Ingredient substitutions

Let's check out some alternate ingredients you can use to keep this dish low-carb and equally yummy:

  • Cinnamon: We used cinnamon in the filling. You can substitute it with nutmeg or allspice.
  • Salted butter: If you want to change things up, swap the salted butter with an equal amount of coconut oil or ghee.

Additional ingredients

If you want to add a bit of creative flair to the recipe, feel free to add some keto-friendly additions from your kitchen pantry:

  • Lemon zest: Sprinkle freshly grated lemon zest into the berry mixture for a tangy twist.
  • Almond slices: Add almond slices on top of your dish before baking. They'll toast up nicely and give your dessert a delightful crunch.
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder: Mix a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder in your almond flour crust for a chocolatey flavor.
  • Cream cheese: For an extra indulgent touch, you can enhance the cobbler's crust by adding small chunks of cream cheese on top before baking. As it bakes, the cream cheese will transform into delightful creamy pockets of joy, making your cobbler even more delicious and satisfying.

Cooking tools required

To make this Keto Cobbler With Mixed Berries recipe, you need the following tools:

  • 10-10.5" cast iron skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixing spoon or spatula
  • Oven mitts
  • Whisk

Tool substitutes list

  • Cast-iron skillet: If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, use a glass or ceramic baking dish to bake your berry cobbler.
  • Whisk: Use a fork to mix if you don't have a whisk.

Cooking methods

  • Baking

Preparation steps

  1. Prep your berries: Grab your raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries and give them a good rinse under cold tap water. Pat them dry with a clean paper towel before baking.
  2. Mix your filling: Combine the berries, sugar-free sweetener, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in the skillet. Give it a gentle toss until all the berries are coated with sweetener and cinnamon.
  3. Prepare your crust dough: In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, egg, vanilla extract, and sugar-free sweetener. Then, add the softened salted butter. Mix until you've got a smooth batter.
  4. Assemble the cobbler: Spread the batter over the berries, leaving some space uncovered.

Cooking instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375° F (190° C).
  2. Transfer the prepared cobbler to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the berries are bubbling around the edges.
  3. Remove from the oven and let the cobbler rest for a few minutes.
  4. Then, scoop out desired portions and serve warm. If you prefer, top it with sugar-free vanilla ice cream or sugar-free whipped cream.

Chef's pro tip

One hiccup you might encounter when making our Keto Cobbler is a watery filling. So to prevent your cobbler from becoming a berry soup, thoroughly drain and dry the berries. If using frozen berries, thaw and drain them well before adding them. This step helps minimize the amount of liquid in the filling. When using frozen berries, add a teaspoon of xanthan gum to the berry mix. It will absorb excess moisture and give your filling a jam-like consistency.

What to serve with keto berry cobbler?

Cobblers are a great summer dessert to enjoy on their own. But, if you prefer to have it alongside something else, here are your options:

  • Keto ice cream: Add low-carb ice cream, like this Keto Peanut Butter Ice Cream, to your warm cobbler for an irresistible hot-and-cold combo.
  • Keto whipped cream: Top your cobbler with keto whipped cream for a delightful creaminess.
  • Sugar-free Greek yogurt: Serve the cobbler with a dollop of Greek yogurt on top to balance out the sweetness.

How to make it healthier

  • Use organic produce: If you can find them in your local market, use organic berries and almond flour.

Time-saving tips

  • Use frozen berries: If you're in a pinch, use frozen berries. But you must thaw them and drain any excess liquid before baking.

What can I prepare ahead of time?

  • Pre-mix the berry filling: Wash and dry the berries beforehand, then store them in a container in the refrigerator. When you're ready to assemble the cobbler, toss the berries with the sweetener, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Prepare the dough: Mix the almond flour and other ingredients for the dough and cover it in the refrigerator. When you're ready to bake, it'll be set to spread over your berries.

Storage and reheating instructions

Storage instruction

Once you've savored your mixed berry cobbler, let any leftovers cool completely before packing away.

  • Refrigerate: Place the leftover cobbler in an airtight container or tightly wrap the baking dish with plastic wrap. It will keep up for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.

Reheating instruction

  • Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the leftovers in an oven-safe dish and heat for about 15 minutes or until warmed.

Recipe wrap-up and conclusion

Our Keto Cobbler is the perfect sweet finale for any meal. Add your favorite keto topping on the golden crust, and you have a dessert that steals the show! Plus, it's great for a fun baking project with your little ones.

It's time for you to take the spotlight and blow everyone away with this mouthwatering dessert. Get those baking tools ready, and let the magic begin. Happy baking!

Frequently asked questions

Berries have low-carb content and are great additions to your keto diet. Here's a list showing how much carbs one cup of berries has:

  • Raspberries - 7g net carbs
  • Blackberries - 6g net carbs
  • Blueberries - 17.4g net carbs

Not really. Freezing affects the texture of the crust and the fruits. So we don't recommend freezing.

No. Coconut flour absorbs more water than almond flour. So the cobbler won't turn out right.

No, microwaving doesn't work for this recipe. You won't have the golden-brown crust and crumbly texture that you get from an oven.

You can, but remember that not all fruits are keto-friendly. Peaches, cherries, and apples are higher in carbs than berries.

Absolutely! This recipe is perfect for meal prep. After baking, let the cobbler cool completely, divide it into individual servings and store them in airtight containers. You've got a ready-to-go keto dessert for the entire week!

    The worm-berries story is the best!
    I, too, struggle with the absence of fruit & veggies in my diet -- but I always thought it was because I keep listening to my mom's lectures on the food "pyramid"...

    I always cook in an iron skillet because I'm anemic. Plus, it makes everything AWESOME! Blackberries have so many health benefits. I'm eating this delicious blackberry cobbler right now. It's divine! Lightly sweet, crumbly, lots of crust. I'm in heaven ?

    Yum! Awesome recipe. I've tried a couple different versions of a low carb cobbler and I need search no further. This is it!
    I baked in my 9x9 glass dish with almost 4 cups mixed blue and black berries (oops). Heaven. Topped with fresh whipped cream seasoned with vanilla and swerve. I really missed baking. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

    Is this ok made a couple days ahead and frozen? If so, thaw at room temp or in fridge? Sounds great, making for the "adult" dessert at grand daughter's 3rd bday party. TIA!

    5 stars
    I give this 5 stars because the cobbler tastes really great and it's so quick and easy to make. My disappointment was in the crust topping. While I admit I'm new to keto and using almond flour, I wished the topping crust yielded more and was a bit more crusty (and I baked it in a cast iron for about 35 minutes too). My cobbler came out nice looking, but nothing like the picture. My topping/crust a bit mealy and was sparse and on the thin side. Perhaps I'll find a video on how to better handle the *dough*. Still, the recipe fulfills a huge void for me. I'm now able to have a sweet treat with fresh whipped cream! Thank You for Posting!
