Substitutions and Variations
This gluten-free and sugar-free cobbler recipe is incredibly flexible and can be modified to fit your taste preferences or dietary restrictions. Here are some ideas for substitutions and variations:
– Fruit: While this recipe uses fresh peaches, feel free to use any juicy fruit you have on hand. Try swapping out the peaches for blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, or a combination of your favorite fruits.
– Sweetener: Instead of stevia, you can use other natural sweeteners such as monk fruit, coconut sugar, or honey (if you’re not vegan). Just keep in mind that the sweetness level may vary based on the type of sweetener you choose.
– Flour: If you don’t have almond flour or coconut flour on hand, try using another gluten-free flour such as oat flour, quinoa flour or buckwheat flour. Keep in mind that using a different flour may change the texture and taste of the cobbler.
– Topping: While this recipe uses a combination of almond flour and rolled oats for the topping, you can opt for a nut-free topping by using only oats. For a crunchier topping, add chopped walnuts or pecans to the mix.
– Dairy-Free: This recipe is already dairy-free but if you prefer a creamier taste and texture, you can replace the coconut milk with another non-dairy milk like cashew milk or almond milk.
– Low Carb and Keto-friendly: To make this cobbler low carb and keto-friendly, use a low-carb sweetener like erythritol or xylitol instead of stevia. Also swap out the rolled oats for extra almond flour or coconut flour.
Whether you’re looking to adjust this recipe due to dietary restrictions or trying to introduce some creativity into your baking endeavors, these substitutions and variations are guaranteed to make your cobbler experience unique!

Now that your gluten-free and sugar-free cobbler is ready, let’s talk about how to serve and pair it. This cobbler is perfect for those warm summer nights when you want something sweet, fruity and comforting. It’s also suitable for any occasion that calls for a delightful dessert.

Make-Ahead, Storing and Reheating
Once you’ve made this delectable gluten-free and sugar-free cobbler recipe, you’ll want to make sure that you can store it properly so that it stays fresh and tasty until you’re ready to enjoy it. Thankfully, with a few easy steps, storing it will be a cinch.
If you’re making the cobbler ahead of time, it’s best to let it cool to room temperature before covering it with plastic wrap or an airtight container. Once you have it sealed up, consider putting it in the refrigerator or freezer, depending on how long before serving you plan on eating it.
If you’re storing your cobbler in the refrigerator, then make sure that you eat it within four days of baking or freezing. Otherwise, pop it in the freezer for up to six months. The only caveat is this – when freezing, make sure to place the cobbler in an appropriate container that is both freezer-safe and watertight. This will protect the flavor and texture of your sweet and fruity dessert.
When reheating your cobbler from refrigeration or frozen storage, there are a few heating options available. Microwaving the dish can be convenient, but can impact the dish’s quality. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), reheat for around 20 minutes if refrigerated and 40-45 minutes if frozen, covering with foil during the first half of baking time.
Now that you know how to keep your delicious gluten-free and sugar-free cobbler fresh and tasty for days, why not try making a bigger batch? That way you’ll be able to enjoy sweet summer desserts anytime without any worry about spoilage!
Tips for Perfect Results
Here are some tips that I have gathered while making this delicious gluten-free and sugar-free cobbler recipe. Follow these tips to ensure that your cobbler turns out perfect and delicious.
1. Use Fresh and High-Quality Ingredients:
Fresh is always the best, especially when it comes to fruits. Ensure that you use fresh in-season peaches or berries to make the cobbler. Using high-quality almond flour, coconut flour, walnut, and coconut oil would also give your cobbler a great taste.
2. Use the Right Baking Dish:
It is essential to choose the right baking dish for your cobbler. A 9×13 inch glass baking dish or a deep-dish pie plate works best. A shallow baking dish can cause the filling to boil over, which can result in a mess in your oven.
3. Let the Cobbler Cool Before Serving:
Once your gluten-free and sugar-free peach or berry cobbler is done cooking, it’s essential to let it cool before slicing and serving it. It allows the juices from the fruit filling to thicken, giving you an incredibly flavorful and firm cobbler that holds together well.
4. Don’t Overwork Your Dough:
When you’re preparing the gluten-free almond flour and coconut flour topping, don’t overwork or knead it too much. It’s crucial to keep it crumbly since overworking can cause it to become dense.
5. Adjust Sweetness with Stevia or Monk Fruit:
For sweetening your gluten-free and dairy-free cobbler recipe, using stevia or monk fruit sweetener would be perfect as they are Keto-friendly options with minimal impact on blood sugar levels.
6. Add Crunch with Chopped Walnuts:
To add extra crunch and texture to your cobbler topping, add chopped walnuts into the ingredients for your topping. This will undoubtedly turn your crust into something unique and delicious.
By following these tips, you can make a perfect gluten-free and sugar-free peach or berry cobbler that is low-carb, Keto-friendly, Paleo, and Vegan. So go ahead and serve up this delicious dessert for your family or friends during summer’s hottest days!
