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 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Prepare the blueberry filling by rinsing and draining the blueberries. Remove any attached stems and mix the blueberries, maple syrup, starch, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a 9-inch square baking dish. Bake for about 25 minutes until bubbling at the edges.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk gently to combine.
- Mix sugar and lemon zest in a small bowl, rubbing the zest into the sugar. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk together.
- In another bowl, combine the melted butter, yogurt, and egg, whisking until mixed. Pour this into the dry mixture and stir until a cohesive dough forms.
- Dollop spoonfuls of the dough over the hot filling, using a spoon to help transfer. Sprinkle additional sugar over the dough.
- Bake for 16 to 20 minutes until the filling bubbles and the top is golden. Allow cooling for 5 to 10 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream.
