Total Time: 70 minutes

Serves: 9-12 people

Ingredients

3 Cups of Washed Blueberries

Blueberries contain antioxidants that kill free radicals linked to cancer and heart disease. They are also a great source of fiber, allowing you to stay fuller, longer, with a mere 80 calorie intake per cup! It is also a great source of vitamin C and can help cure Urinary Tract Infections (UTI).

2 Cups of Almond Flour

So why almond flour over your standard wheat flour? Four reasons: it his gluten-free, high in protein, low in carbohydrates and low in sugars. Thank goodness for almonds!

¼ Cup of Coconut Flour

Coconut Flour is also gluten-free, but there are other amazing properties to this wheat flour alternative as well. It is high in fiber, high in healthy fats and packed with protein. As an added bonus, if you are diabetic, this flour won’t disrupt your blood sugar levels nearly as much as other flours would.

½ Teaspoon of Baking Soda

There isn’t enough baking soda in this recipe to truly reap its benefits. It’s just here to make sure your healthy cobbler rises in the oven!

¼ Teaspoon of Sea Salt

This salt is healthier than table salt because it’s lifted right out the sea and put in the supermarket. It isn’t processed like table salt, making it rich in essential trace minerals. It also strengthens your immune system, helps with weight loss and improves heart health, just to name a few of its many benefits.

½ Cup of Honey

Honey is a delicious natural sweetener that regulates blood sugar levels. There are over 40 different kinds. The Darker honey has the most antioxidants. To get the full nutritional benefits, make sure the honey is pure and raw.

¼ Cup of Soft Butter

Unlike margarine, butter is completely natural. Raw, organic butter has calcium, contains healthy fats, and adds a considerable amount of vitamins A, K, E and D to your diet.

Drop of Almond Extract

This is a great vanilla extract alternative for those trying to regulate their blood sugar levels.

3 Tablespoons of Flax-Meal

Whisk this with nine tablespoons of warm water. Allow it to plump up for five minutes.

1 Tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar

This is also great for regulating blood sugar levels. Add this last.

Mix wet and dry ingredients together, stirring in the flax. Once well combined, quickly stir in cider vinegar.
