Low Carb Blueberry Clafoutis

What even is a low carb blueberry clafoutis? I’m here to answer that and to give a low carb version of a clafoutis that you could use with any berry. Not only is this keto-friendly, but it is also gluten-free and dairy-free.

First of all, I’m a big fan of knowing how to say the word. This word is French. Here is a helpful YouTube clip with the pronunciation. My fancy pronunciation guide spelling is kle-foo-ti.

What is Clafoutis?

Clafoutis is a baked French dessert. It contains components that would also qualify for breakfast. The batter is similar to crepe batter. The final result is a little bit like cake, a little bit like a custard.

This could be made with any berry and it would also go well with stone fruit.

In this low carb clafoutis recipe, cardamom was added, but you can use other spices like pumpkin pie spice, cardamom, nutmeg if you’d like. You can also omit the spices if you so choose.

Calling all Skeptics

Chances are, you may have never heard of a clafoutis. You’re wondering if it is worth trying.

Do you like cake? How about cake without the guilt or a blood-sugar rollercoaster? Do you like cake for breakfast?

Of course you do.

When I was making this recipe, I knew that I would want to be able to serve it to my friend who is dairy-free. This particular friend enjoys good food but is a bit particular. Serving him this low carb clafoutis came with the possibility of rejection. I wasn’t sure what his response would be. Not only did he ask for seconds, he asked for the recipe!

Simple Ingredients for this Keto Clafoutis Recipe

The ingredients in this low carb clafoutis are simple. The recipe has been customized to fit a ketogenic diet and a low carb lifestyle. It is also gluten-free, sugar-free, and dairy-free.

• Blueberries
• Eggs
• Unsweetened nut milk (your choice)
• Salt
• Monkfruit Sweetener
• Coconut Oil
• Cardamom (see above notes)
• Vanilla Extract
• Salt
• Monkfruit powdered sweetener (or low carb powdered sugar substitute)

How to prepare the Low Carb Clafoutis

You’ll need a glass baking dish. A glass pie plate would work for this, I used a round casserole dish.

Take coconut oil and grease the dish, making sure to grease the edges as well. Then sprinkle a portion of the monkfruit sweetener on the greased dish. Rotate the dish to make sure that the sweetener lightly covers all of the greased area.

Place blueberries (or other berries) in the prepared dish.

Mix the batter according to the recipe instructions then pour it over the berries.

Bake the low carb clafoutis at 350°F for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
If you use frozen blueberries, add an additional 10-15 minutes to the baking time.

When you remove the clafoutis from the oven, it will deflate. That is normal!

Once the clafoutis has cooled some, you can sprinkle powdered sweetener on top.

How to make this low carb cake recipe even lower in carbohydrates?

If you are concerned about the carbs in blueberries, you could swap raspberries or blackberries for blueberries.

One cup of blueberries has about 18g net carbs.

One cup of raspberries has about 7g net carbs.

One cup of blackberries has about 6g net carbs.
