If you are a fan of yummy summer peach desserts, you are going to love this easy and crunchy vegan and paleo peach crisp, with soft sweet filling topped with crispy nutty topping!

Easy Vegan & Paleo Peach Crisp

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!

    Do you think I could sub the almond flour for coconut or oat flour? Almond is the only one I don’t have (nor do I have almonds to make my own ๐Ÿ™

    I might just try the coconut tomorrow and see what happens!

    1. Jean Choi says:

      You can try oat flour, but definitely not coconut flour. That’ll soak up too much of the liquid and the topping may be too dry.

    Love the recipe. I cut down the time to a total of15 min. by cooking the filling in the microwave 8 min with one stir in the middle. While that was cooking, I made the topping, with butter, not coconut oil. Placed the cooked peaches in a pan, topped with topping by sprinkling by hand til roughly even. Broiled mid oven til toasty brown. Amazing!

    Made this recipe and it was delicious! Subbed walnuts for pecans and doubled the almond meal to completely cover the peaches… fantastic. Thank you!
