What Exactly is a Blackberry Coconut Bake?
To be honest, I don't know. All I know is that I was trying to make a cobbler with coconut flour. But the first time I made it, the blackberry stuff bubbled up and coconut flour is so absorbent that it absorbed all the liquid from it.
So we had blackberries at the bottom, coconut flour dry on top--and in the middle, we had this lovely cake-like, pudding-like mix. I decided to just mix it all together when I tried it again.
I had no idea what to call this so--very unimaginatively--I called it a Blackberry Coconut Bake. Because you know. Blackberries. Coconut flour. Bake.
How Many Carbs Are In Blackberries?
You may be thinking to yourself "I thought fruit was high in carbs?" Well, most fruits are packed with a lot of natural sugars, making them less than ideal for a ketogenic diet.
However, berries (such as blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries) can be ok for a low carb lifestyle in moderation.
Blackberries have 7 net carbs per cup, so as long as you practice some self-control, they can easily still fit in your daily macros.
How To Make Blackberry Cake
You simply pour all of the ingredients into a bowl, mix them together, pour them into a pan and bake for 20 minutes. No need to mix ingredients separately or add the ingredients in any particular order. Who's got time for that anyway?
- Grease a 7 x 2 inch cake pan
- Mix together berries with their liquid, coconut flour, egg, Truvia, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
- Pour into the greased pan and bake. Allow the pudding to cool and then serve hot.
- Top with whipped cream or keto ice cream.

How To Serve This Keto Cake
This Blackberry Coconut Bake can be served as is or you can amp up the deliciousness by topping it with some whipped cream or make my no-cook keto ice cream while it is baking.
It's served best piping hot when it's a pudding-like consistency you can scoop or straight from the fridge when it's cold and can be cut into slices. Now quit reading this and get to baking!
