The Queen of Butter, Paula Deen, is known for her comfort food and her peach cobbler recipe is a fan favorite because it is warm, gooey and peachy sweet! It’s also loaded with sugar and carbs. But I found a way to cut the sugar without sacrificing the flavor or peaches in this well-loved recipe. With only 3.6 net carbs per serving, you can still top your cobbler with a hefty scoop of low carb vanilla ice cream!
What makes this keto?
To turn Paula Deen’s Peach Cobbler recipe into a keto version, I had to make a couple of easy swaps. These made a huge impact on lowering the sugar and carbs but kept this deliciously gooey and sweet.
- Less peaches – Peaches are considered a high sugar fruit, with one peach having around 15 grams of carbohydrates and only 2 grams of fiber. But instead of omitting the peaches completely like some low carb peach cobbler recipes do, I just lowered the amount used. Paula’s recipe calls for 4 peaches. Instead, I found that two peaches are enough to provide that peachy flavor without adding too many carbs to the recipe. To add more peach flavor, I added 1/2 teaspoon of peach flavor extract; although, this is optional.
- No sugar – Paula’s recipe uses 2 cups of sugar. Of course, I didn’t use real sugar in this recipe. Instead, I used a sugar-free sweetener that is zero carbs and zero calories. In addition, I found that I didn’t have to use as much sweetener as Paula Deen did. One cup of sugar-free sweetener provided enough sweetness for this Southern classic twist.
- Replaced the flour – Not only does replacing the self-rising flour in this recipe lower the carbs, but it turns this peach cobbler gluten-free! Instead of wheat based flour, I used a combination of almond flour and oat fiber to give a similar texture and help add structure, keeping the integrity of the dish similar to Paula’s recipe.
- Replaced the milk – Paula uses a cup of milk in her peach cobbler recipe. This adds 11 carbs/sugar to her recipe. I found that using an unsweetened flaxmilk or macadamia nut milk works the same and only adds 1 carb.
