Low Carb Blueberry Coffee Cake image

A great tasting coffee cake using almond flour, finely ground unsalted almonds. I'm sure you could make this cake using regular sugar as well. I sometimes use egg whites, or Egg Beaters to cut down on the fat content.

3 cups almond flour, divided (very finely ground unsalted almonds)
1/2 cup Splenda granular (sugar substitute)
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch sea salt
8 ounces low-fat cream cheese
1 1/2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup Splenda granular (sugar substitute)
