Nutty Peach Crisp with Oats, Almonds, and Pecans
(Vegan & Gluten-Free)
Peach Filling
8-10 fresh peaches, parboiled, peeled, and sliced (about 9-10 cups)
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
4 Tbsp maple syrup
½ tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp arrowroot (or cornstarch)
Crisp Topping
1 cup almond flour
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
2 Tbsp maple syrup (or more, to taste)
½ tsp salt
4 Tbsp coconut oil
Directions
• Preheat oven to 350 F.
• In large bowl, combine all peach filling ingredients and stir to coat peaches.
• Pour peach mixture into 9x13 baking dish and place it on a baking sheet to catch drips if fruit boils over. Cook peaches uncovered for 10 minutes.
• While peaches bake, whisk the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Add coconut oil and stir to combine until oil is evenly distributed. Taste to see if it’s sweet enough. If not, add 1 Tbsp at a time of maple syrup until it’s perfect.
• Pull fruit out of oven and sprinkle topping until it is evenly distributed.
• Bake until fruit is bubbling and crisp is golden brown, usually about 30-40 minutes.
