Ingredients 

Crisp topping

Peach filling

  • 4-5 large peaches or nectarines ripe, 4 cups or 580g
  • 1 lemon zest and juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Make crumble topping in a large mixing bowl. Combine the flour, light brown sugar and add the diced vegan butter. Using a pastry cutter, a fork, or your hands, combine until you have a crumbly mixture.
    1 cup (125 g) all purpose flour, ⅔ cup (135 g) light brown sugar, ½ cup (110 g) vegan butter
  • Prepare peaches or nectarines. Peel if desired, then slice in half, remove pit and cut into slices.
    4-5 large peaches or nectarines
  • Make peach filling directly in a 8 x 8 inch (20cm) baking dish, by stirring together sliced peaches, lemon juice, zest, spices and cornstarch.
    1 lemon, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • Scatter the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the peaches. No need to press the topping down.
  • Bake at 350℉ / 180℃ for around 40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach mixture is bubbling.
  • Serve warm and enjoy, with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream!

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.

Sweetness level

The filling contains no added sugar, and is on the tangy side of the flavor spectrum and contrasts beautifully with the sweet topping. If your fruit isn't that ripe, or you know you have a preference for a sweeter filling, you can add 1-4 tablespoons of vegan sugar to the fruit.

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.
