Healthy Peach Crisp!
This Healthy Peach Crisp is a perfect way to use up the last peaches of the summer season. It’s sweet and delicious, and made with simple whole food ingredients. This peach crisp is a healthier version of traditional peach crisp. Butter is swapped for the healthy fats in coconut oil, and brown sugar is swapped for maple syrup, which lightly sweetens the oat topping. Not only is this delicious dessert vegan and refined sugar-free, it’s also gluten-free! The oat topping is made with a combination of oats and almond flour, making a perfect texture.
This makes a perfect warm dessert on a cool night, but I also like to enjoy it for a morning snack!

You had me at maple! I made this in individual ramekins (reduced time to 25 min) and took with a picnic lunch to an outdoor concert with my 87 year old in-laws. He tries not to eat sugar or butter, so the maple syrup, coconut oil & oats were my leading sales pitch. Tasted like fresh peaches with a homemade oatmeal cookie on top! They were a hit, thanks so much.
