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 the oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse and drain the blueberries, removing any stems. In a 9-inch square baking dish, mix blueberries, maple syrup, starch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Bake for 25 minutes until bubbling around the edges.
- To prepare the topping, combine almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl, whisk until mixed and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix sugar and lemon zest. Use fingers to rub zest into sugar for more flavor. Add the sugar mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk together.
- In the smaller bowl, combine melted butter, yogurt, and egg, whisk until blended. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
- Dollop spoonfuls of the topping over the hot filling, smoothing with a spoon if needed. Sprinkle sugar on top.
- Bake for 16 to 20 minutes until the filling bubbles and the topping is lightly golden. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy with vanilla ice cream, if desired.
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and are delicious with Greek yogurt for breakfast.
Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup or honey according to taste.
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
