High Protein/Lo Carbers...Recipes and info

I altered this a little, as I usually do. It was delicious.

The GF doesn't like blueberries (!?) so I peeled a Trader Joes flat of fresh peaches, added a little more xanthan gum to thicken the juice than the recipe and I crushed a handful of pecans to mix in with the dough crumble. I also mixed about 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon with the peaches. I used Erythritol to sweeten the peaches instead of Swerve. I did not use lemon juice or zest.

It took 30 minutes to bubble and brown for me.

Author: Mellissa Sevigny

INGREDIENTS
For the filling:
3 cups blueberries
¼ tsp xanthan gum (to thicken)
