Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol, monk fruit sweetener)
- 1.5 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- sugar-free vanilla ice cream (optional for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, granulated sugar substitute, and cornstarch. Toss until the berries are evenly coated. Transfer the blueberry mixture to the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, mix the rolled oats, almond flour, ground cinnamon, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to crumble the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
If using chopped pecans, fold them into the crumble mixture for added texture and flavor.
Spread the crumble topping evenly over the blueberry mixture in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
Allow the blueberry crisp to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Optionally, top with a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
Enjoy your diabetic-friendly dessert!
