I am always experimenting with new Weight Watchers dessert recipes that are low in points and this Blueberry Crisp was delicious. It is very easy to make and it's gluten free, grain free, and sugar free which is always an added plus for me. It makes 4 very nice sized servings which are 6 points each.
I am a dessert lover. I love sweets after dinner and for years I have deprived myself of some of my favorite foods in my quest to loose weight. That is not something that happens since I started Weight Watchers. I am still careful about using sugar and flour, because for me there is a direct correlation between sugar and flour and inflammation in my body, but I no longer shy away from eating them either. I found that I couldn't live my life like that any longer. I want to be able to have to have a luscious and sweet treat after dinner or at some point during the day. Just like I want to be able to eat a chip or a cracker. I don't want to go through life feeling deprived any longer. One of the results of that change in thought and behavior is this delightfully, effortless Blueberry Crisp. I hope that you like it as much as I do.

Next, in another bowl, mix the almond flour, melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and Swerve and crumble it over the blueberry mixture.

I like your new approach! I've not heard of Swerve, so can you explain what type of sweetener it is? Thanks! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
DeleteI like it a lot also. Swerve is a zero calorie natural sweetener called erythritol. Swerve is the brand name. I like the swerve confectioners, because I think it dissolves better then the granulated erythritol. It would be similiar to powdered sugar. I like the granulated also, but I found that the confectioners a little easier to use. It measures almost 1 to 1 for sugar, and it tastes like sugar. I haven't found any other brand that has the powdered form. It does not leave a funky aftertaste either. It is more expensive then sugar, but so are the other sweeteners. It doesn't raise your blood sugar, and so it doesn't make you hungry after you eat it.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
