Vegan Blueberry Cobbler No Oil
Description
Vegan Blueberry Cobbler No Oil combines fresh blueberries with lemon zest and juice sweetened by coconut sugar, spreading fresh fruit flavor across the base. The biscuit topping is made by mixing all-purpose flour with almond flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, enhanced by a pinch of nutmeg. Coconut milk, a combination of coconut cream and thinner coconut milk, binds the dry ingredients into a thick batter.
The batter is dropped over the berries in spoonfuls and baked at 375°F until the topping is golden and set. The contrast between juicy blueberries and the soft, cakey biscuit layer above creates a classic cobbler texture without added oil. A brief broil can add browning if desired.
This dessert works well on its own or served with non-dairy ice cream or whipped coconut cream for added richness. It keeps in the refrigerator for up to three days, offering convenience as a make-ahead sweet treat.
Substitutions include using all-purpose flour only for almond flour replacement or stringent gluten-free flour blends combining rice flour, potato starch, and almond flour. Alternate non-dairy milks may be used with an added fat source to maintain moistness and texture in the topping. Adjust liquid slightly if using different milk types.
