Peach Crisp

There is nothing better than a mouth-watering peach crisp as a summertime dessert. Using this gorgeous seasonal fruit makes for the perfect crisp, especially when they are naturally ripe and sweet. You can expect a gooey peach filling topped with a crumbly nutty topping. Both textures together work so beautifully. Enjoy the peach crisp with some vanilla ice cream for the perfect bite because nothing is better than a warm fruit dessert with cold ice cream!

Another thing I love about this dessert is it is truly effortless and rustic. You don’t need to worry about how it looks like or need any fancy equipment or ingredients. It is truly a no-fuss recipe. Better yet, you can actually prep the filling and topping separately ahead of time and toss them together right when you want to bake making it even more convenient if needed.

How to make this peach crisp Vegan & GF

This dairy-free peach crisp can also be easily modified to be vegan and gluten-free. Substitutions to do so are in the recipe card below! This peach crisp you will find is lighter than most as it doesn’t have as much sugar and the sugar used is coconut sugar and the fat used is coconut oil instead of butter. The streusel topping has both oats and pecans for the perfect crunch duo and the cinnamon throughout is just heavenly.

Notes

You must use RIPE peaches or else it will not tenderize in time and not be as tasty. Also, ripe peaches are naturally sweeter which works in this recipe as there isn’t as much sugar as other recipes.

You can use walnuts or almonds in place of pecans but pecans offer the best taste!
