Ingredients
Batter
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup butter, unsalted, softened
- 1/2 cup monkfruit low carb sweetener
- 2 medium eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Toppings
- 4 oz cream cheese, cut into small pieces
- 8 strawberries, cut into halves
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 190°C (380°F) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking your cobbler.
- Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and monkfruit sweetener. Mix until the mixture is creamy and smooth, ensuring all the sweetener is well incorporated.
- Add Eggs & Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and slightly fluffy.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until a smooth batter forms, making sure to eliminate any lumps.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the prepared batter into a greased 8-inch (or 9-inch) baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Top with Strawberries & Cream Cheese: Arrange the halved strawberries on top of the batter. Scatter the cream cheese pieces evenly across the surface.
- Bake: Cover the dish with foil and place it in the oven. Bake for a total of 45-50 minutes, removing the foil after 25 minutes to allow the top to become firm and golden. The crust will rise around the fruit, which might peek out from the top.
- Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm and enjoy!
