Ingredients 

Crisp topping

  • ¾ cup (95 g) all purpose flour or certified gluten-free oat flour ¾ cup (72g)
  • ¾ cup (60 g) oats rolled or old-fashioned, certified gluten-free if necessary
  • ½ cup (110 g) vegan butter diced
  • ½ cup (100 g) light brown sugar
  • ½ cup (60 g) pecans
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Peach filling

  • 4-5 large peaches 4 cups or 580g
  • 1-4 tablespoons granulated sugar adjust to sweetness of peaches
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Make crisp topping in a large mixing bowl. Add the flour, oats, diced vegan butter, light brown sugar and cinnamon. Using a pastry cutter, a fork, or your hands, combine until you have a rough mixture with no loose flour. It's ok to have some small chunks of butter in the crisp mixture.

  • Bake at 350℉ / 180℃ for 40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach mixture is bubbling and looks thickened.

Notes

Peaches

You can use any type of peaches or nectarines in this recipe. In the summer it's perfect for ripe and fresh peaches. Canned peaches should be drained and frozen peaches thawed.
Because peaches can vary so much in sweetness, we recommend tasting them and adjusting the sugar in the filling to taste and your sweetness preference. Peaches that have been canned in syrup will be sweeter and need less sugar, whereas underripe peaches or storebought frozen peach slices often require more sugar.

Dish size

We use a deep 8 x 8 inch 2 quart or 2L baking dish for this recipe. A 7 x 11 inch dish will also work. You can also double the recipe (use the adjustable buttons in the recipe card to easily scale the ingredients) and bake it in a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.

Gluten-free

For a vegan gluten-free peach crisp make sure to use GF certified oat flour and gluten-free oats. You can make oat flour from oats by processing them in a blender or food processor until you have a fine and powdery texture. Sift with a strainer to remove any unblended bits.
