This easy keto cobbler is packed with ripe juicy berries and topped with a sweet grain-free biscuit crust. Top it with some keto ice cream for serious summer deliciousness.
Is anything more dreamy than this keto cobbler recipe? No, friends, no there is not. Especially when all the fresh berries are in season and bursting with juicy flavor.
I tend to go a little crazy in the summer when fresh berries are readily available. I grow my own raspberries, which is a constant source of delight all summer. And I load up on strawberries and blueberries every time I hit my farmer’s market.
Coming up with recipes that work in fresh berries is pure joy for me. A few fan favorites include keto blueberry bread, no bake keto strawberry cheesecake, and my famous keto raspberry cream cheese coffee cake.
For this Triple Berry Keto Cobbler, I used strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Blueberries weren’t quite in season at the time but you could easily swap those in if so desired!
Topping for keto cobbler
When it comes to making a cobbler style dessert, the filling is the easy part. It’s usually just fruit, sweetener, and a little thickening agent so that it’s not too soupy.
But the topping varies considerably recipe to recipe. I’ve seen recipes that utilize a more cake-like topping, to ones that use sugar cookie dough. All of which can be delicious.
The classic, and most common, topping for cobbler is a sweet biscuit-like dough, and that’s what I used here. I modified my easy keto biscuits, leaving out the cheese and making it thicker and sweeter.
It was absolutely delectable!
How to make keto cobbler
This is an easy keto dessert that comes together in 45 minutes, start to finish. Here’s how it’s done:
The filling
- Use fresh berries. I highly recommend using fresh, as frozen berries get very soft and release more juice, which means a soupy filling. What berries you use is up to you, but keep in mind that blueberries are a bit higher in carbs.
- Spread them in a non-metal baking dish. Berries can be quite acidic and may react to the metal in a baking pan.
- Choose a sweetener. I recommend allulose or BochaSweet for keto cobbler, as it makes the filling more syrupy.
- Mix the sweetener with some thickener. Whisking in some xanthan gum or glucomannan with the sweetener helps distribute it more evenly.
- Sprinkle over the berries.
The topping
- Choose a sweetener. I highly recommend using a brown sugar replacement like Swerve Brown, as it gives the topping more depth of flavor. An erythritol sweetener will also help firm up the topping nicely, whereas allulose will make it very soft.
- Whisk the dry ingredients. Make sure to break up any clumps in the flours and sweeteners as you go.
- Add the wet ingredients. The topping mixture should be like a stiff biscuit dough. It needs to be on the thicker side so that it doesn’t disappear down into the filling.
- Use your fingers to break the dough into pieces and sprinkle over the filling.
- Bake until bubbly and browned.
Frequently Asked Questions
This keto cobbler will work with any fruit but you need to be mindful of carb count. Raspberries and strawberries have some of the lowest carbs, but blueberries and blackberries are a bit higher. Peaches can be used sparingly as well.
You can replace the coconut flour with 3 times as much almond flour, so another 6 tablespoons. Do keep in mind that this will raise the carb count.
Yes but as I mention above, erythritol based sweeteners like Swerve are best for a firm biscuit topping. Allulose or BochaSweet may make it softer and more cake-like. You don’t have to use a brown sweetener, but it does give the cobbler great flavor.
Absolutely! Try replacing the butter with coconut oil and the whipping cream with coconut milk.
Any cobbler style dessert is going to be best made fresh, because it continues to soften as it sits. I did find that the topping was nice and firm the next day but softened a bit as I re-heated it.
Storage instructions
Keto cobbler is best made fresh but you may end up with some leftovers. Simply leave the cobbler in the baking dish and wrap it up tightly. Store in the fridge.
To re-warm, you can dish it out into individual servings, or warm it in the original baking dish. It re-heats nicely in both the oven or the microwave.

This came out beautiful but I put a couple little twists on it. So, I used frozen mixed berries. I substituted Xanthum Gum for Glucomannan, I also added 1 tsp lemon juice and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. I put all of the fillings in a small pot and cooked it down first then added it to the ceramic baking dish. Then put the crust mixture over the top. Baked according to the directions. Looooved it.
Ann Young says
This was great! Thanks so much, Carolyn, your recipes are my 100% go-to and I have learned so much from your blog, recipe directions, and keto cookbooks! What a wonderful keto berry treat. But non-keto people will love it too! As others have said: I could eat the whole pan in one sitting it’s just SO GOOD! I followed the directions exactly, just fyi.
David says
I’m going to try with fresh peached !
Alice says
Hi Carolyn, can you use gelatin instead of glucomannan?
Gracie Mcgraw says
Do I use the same amount of xanthan gum as glucomannan?
Carolyn says
Yup!
TC says
I did. It worked great. I would Mix it with the sweetener to distribute it more evenly.
Kim Reasoner says
Absolutely delicious! I wish I could give it a higher rating. My only minor change was running 1/4 cup short on raspberries and substituting an additional 1/4 cup of quartered strawberries. I will (eventually) share this with my non-keto family…because you can’t tell that it’s keto. Carolyn Ketchum, you have done it again. Thank you so very much for your time and effort in creating these recipes. You make it possible for me to stay on keto and improve my health.

Amy says
Making this cobbler for the second time!! I couldn’t stay out of the first. So so good. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Holli Krebs says
I would like to use Pyure in the filling, do ypu think it will be ok? I have glucomann and xanthan . Do you think I should use a 1/2 tbsp. of glucomann? Thanks Carolyn, your awesome. I hope the blackberries will ripen fully around my house before the rain starts, but frozen berries taste great too.
Carolyn says
I can’t see why it won’t work, but I definitely wouldn’t increase the glucommanan that much, it would be slimy. Maybe 1 tsp at most!
Vilma Flores says
Hi
I love all your recipes, what’s the difference between Allulose and Monkfruit?
Carolyn says
Please read this: https://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/best-keto-sweeteners/
Beth says
Looks delicious! Can I use frozen berries? Would I thaw them first?
Carolyn says
Please read the blog post as I already addressed that.
Peggy says
This cobbler is delicious. I’ve made it several times. My non keto Mom and Hubby also loved it. Definitely want to take Carolyns advice on fresh berries not frozen. It’s also good cold with a little whipped cream. Thank you so much for this delicious recipe
Linda A. says
I ignored Carolyn’s advice about using frozen berries. I had 2 cups of frozen strawberries I wanted to use up so I halved the recipe. It turned out too soupy just like she warned, but I enjoyed every bite. I put each serving in individual containers. When chilled, the sauce had thickened up but probably would have thinned out if I warmed it. So I ate them cold. They were delicious and I think I liked them cold better than warm. I love easy recipes that are delicious. This one’s a winner for me. Thank you, Carolyn.
Mary says
Yum! I’ve been “test-tasting” while our steaks are grilling. This is the perfect dessert! Pretty too. And it was easy.
Rita landa says
Hi for the cobbler it says 2 tbs heavy cream can I leve that out as I want it to b non dairy pareve
Carolyn says
I gave options in the FAQ for dairy free.
Roberta says
Instead of the ceramic baking dish, can I use a glass one (Pyrex) ? Which size should I use to reduce the recipe to 6 portions? And lastly, does the shape matter (oval rather than rectangular)? Thank you if you’ll help 🙂
Carolyn says
Yes glass is fine but I have no idea what size you would use to cut it back to 6 servings. Shape doesn’t matter.
Debbie says
Gluccomine not glucosamine ????
Debbie says
Can you use xantham instead of glucosamine?
Carolyn says
That should be fine. I think you mean glucomannan? 🙂
