It’s summertime which means I’ve been eating peaches nonstop. They are one of my favorite fruits and there’s nothing like taking a bite out of a peach that’s so ripe that the juices run down your chin.

Vegan & Paleo Peach Crisp Recipe
After hoarding a giant bag of peaches from the farmers market recently, I was left with some that had gone super ripe and needed to be used up quickly. So I ended up making this vegan and paleo peach crisp, and it might just be my new favorite summer dessert!
Ripe peaches are chopped and tossed with some coconut sugar mixture, then baked under a layer of sweetened pecan and almond crumble to make a light and decadent treat. I know it’s hot out but this recipe is definitely worth turning on the oven for.
Yummy Ways to Enjoy This Vegan & Paleo Peach Crisp
This vegan and paleo peach crisp can be eaten warm or chilled. However, I personally love it when it’s hot fresh out of the oven when the topping is nutty and crunchy. It’s delectable on its own, but to make it even better, feel free to serve it topped with something light and creamy like:
- coconut yogurt
- vegan ice cream…I bet vanilla would taste divine with it!
- coconut whipped cream
- sour cream… I know it sounds weird but I’ve tried this combo before and it’s amazing.
Best Way to Enjoy Leftovers
You’ll find that this vegan and paleo peach crisp is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. However, if you do have leftovers, you can cover it up and store it in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. It’ll stay yummy, but the topping will lose its crunchiness in the fridge.
To get it crisp up again, you can just bake the whole thing in the 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes until it firms up. I honestly love the crunchy topping so much that I think it’s worth the extra effort of heating it back up. But if you are feeling lazy (I’ve been there), you can just eat it cold and I bet you’ll still love it!

We are just starting to see peaches around here and I can’t wait! The girls are asking for pie lately but I am definitely more of a crisp kind of a prep momma 😉 Can’t wait to try this! Thanks!
Peaches are my favourite fruit! This looks like something decadent that I can make for my dairy-free niece!
Thanks for the great recipe!
What a healthy and delicious peach crisp. I can have this from morning to evening !
I do love crisps… apple, pear, peach, they’re all amazing. But… is it ok if I really just want to eat all the crumble topping??
This looks delicious! I think the nuts in the topping are much better than the typical oatmeal. Pinning to try!
Those peaches are calling out to me. Nothing better than peach crisp in the summer with a dollop of ice cream.
So yummy! I can’t wait to get some peaches and try this out!
This looks way too good! I just so happen to have some ripe peaches on the counter, so I may have to break down and turn on the oven!
Made this recipe and it was delicious! Subbed walnuts for pecans and doubled the almond meal to completely cover the peaches… fantastic. Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
