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 your oven to 375°F.
- For the filling, rinse and drain the blueberries, then remove any stems. In a 9-inch square baking dish, combine the blueberries, maple syrup, arrowroot starch, lemon juice, and cinnamon, stirring until well mixed. Bake for about 25 minutes until bubbling.
- To prepare the topping, mix the almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk gently and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar and lemon zest, rubbing the zest into the sugar for added flavor. Stir this mixture into the dry ingredients.
- In the smaller bowl, whisk together the melted butter, greek yogurt, and egg until combined. Add this to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms, which will initially appear crumbly.
- Dollop the dough over the hot filling using a spoon, and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake for 16-20 minutes until the top is lightly golden and the filling is bubbling. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving with ice cream.
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
For a delightful breakfast option, try serving with Greek yogurt the next day.
Feel free to adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup or sugar based on personal preference.
