Method
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Put 4 cups fresh or frozen unsweetened berries in a pie dish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon raw honey over them; add optional 2 tablespoons ghee or coconut oil and turn the berries gently to distribute it. Leave them whole or in their natural pieces.
- Measure 2 cups dry fermented almond meal. If starting with whole properly prepared crispy almonds, pulse just until coarse flour forms; stop before they turn glossy or begin clumping into almond butter. The linked dry almond meal can be measured as is.
- Add 2 tablespoons melted ghee or coconut oil and 1/4 cup raw honey to the almond meal. Add 1 large egg if you want a more cohesive topping. Mix until there are no dry pockets. With egg, the mixture gathers into soft clumps; without it, it stays like damp crumbs.
- Scatter the topping evenly over the berries. Leave it loose rather than pressing it down, and let some berries remain visible so steam can escape.
- Bake uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes. Begin checking at 30 minutes. The berries should be soft and bubble at the edges; the topping should be set, well cooked and lightly golden. Frozen berries may need the longer end of the range.
- If the topping darkens before the berries bubble, loosely cover the dish with foil for the remaining bake. Remove the pan when both fruit and topping reach their cues.
- Rest the cobbler for about 15 minutes before serving so berry juices can settle. Serve warm, or cool longer for cleaner portions.
Notes
One pie-dish cobbler. Full GAPS only; use properly prepared dry almond meal and raw honey. Homemade ghee is linked as a component; coconut oil may replace it in the same amount. The egg is optional.
