This fresh picked low carb blackberry crumbler is in a category of its own, so I named it as such! It’s not a cobbler and it’s not a crumble, it’s a CRUMBLER! Fresh picked blackberries baked with a layer of sweet, nutty pastry.
It’s okay to use store bought fresh blackberries if you can’t run out and pick your own. Frozen blackberries contain more moisture so you will need to adjust the recipe, just check the notes.
Cobbler vs. Crumble vs. Crumbler
A cobbler is a dish, sweet or savory, that is generally baked with a thick batter, such as biscuits. A crumble is a dish of the same sorts but generally has a thin crust made up of flour, sugar and butter.
A “crumbler” lies somewhere right in-between and contains no gluten to weigh down the dish or you. The nutty pastry allows the berries to shine while still adding a complimentary crust.
Blackberries grow all over Oregon and are usually ripe and ready to pick anywhere from July to September. I pick mine near the Oregon coastal range. A friend of mine showed me a “special” place a few years back. It is quiet and private and we go each year to gather my yearly supply.

Caring For Your Blackberries
Blackberries do not keep for more than one or two days, so I usually return home and immediately bake a fresh pie and freeze the rest to have on hand.
To freeze blackberries or other various types of fruit, lay the fruit out in a thin layer on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer. Once the fruit is frozen, remove and place in a vacuumed sealed bag or in double layered Ziploc bags, removing as much air as you can.
Berry Delicious Low Carb Blackberry Crumbler!
There is something magical about foraging for your own food and then creating a dish out of your found treasures. I am 100 percent positive that nothing ever tastes so good!
This low carb blackberry crumbler is straightforward. Top it off with whipped or non-whipped heavy cream, sugar free ice cream or plain Greek yogurt.
Forage, Bake and Enjoy!
