This simple vegan and gluten-free peach crisp only requires 8 ingredients and comes together in minutes! Whip it up for a tasty treat the whole family will adore.
I have to tell you guys sumpseeeeng SERIOUS.
I’m going paleo.
Like steak status.
Wait. I know you didn’t take that seriously.
What I really have to tell you is that I did my 7th grade science project on how the size of the peach effects the size of the pit. Or was it vice versa?
Either way, I basically studied one of the most unimportant facts of nature that there ever was. Who on God’s green earth was I thinking I was helping by doing randomized trials on peaches and their pits?
To think I could’ve studied hummus or pine cones or precipitation or something that mattered even a LITTLE.
So to answer your unasked question, according to my 7th grade calculations, the size of the peach has absolutely no effect on the size of the pit.
Onto things that actually matter, like your taste buds. This peach crisp came about because I bought bags on bags of frozen peaches and I’ve had one too many peach protein smoothies, if that’s even possible. I mean we all know I’m a blueberry girl at heart.
It also came about because the other night I wanted dessert and I wanted it FAST. I didn’t want to get out the food processor and to be completely frank, I didn’t want to spend more than ten minutes of my precious potential sleep time on chopping or mixing or sauteeing anything that wasn’t absolutely positively necessary.
Talk about high-maintenance!
This peach crisp is a real winner. It takes next to no time to throw it together, but it tastes like one of those sinfully delish there’s-no-way-this-is-healthy-or-vegan-or-gluten-free dishes.
You could easily replace peaches with pretty much any fruit you fancy. But hey, then it wouldn’t be a very peachy peach crisp now would it?

I’ve used fresh peaches for peach crisp and it’s kind of a pain to get the skin off, so I think using frozen is a great idea! And I’m not going to lie, this is totally making me want dessert for breakfast!
Rachel @ athletic avocado says

I’ve been meaning to make some sort of peach crisp/crumble/casserole/whateveryouwanttocallit, and this is looking FAB! Love how easy peasy it is plus soooo healthy. I’d probably eat the whole lot of it for din din. Have a great weekend, lady!
Laura says
Love the ingredients for the crumble topping! I know you said you can switch up the fruit based on what you have on hand, but what about using fruit or peaches that are not frozen?
Arman @ thebigmansworld says
I’m telling everyone what you told me.
This made me peachy.
Lauren says
I love peaches and crisps. I love how straightforward and easy this recipe is!
June @ How to Philosophize with Cake says
Wow that really is easy! Love how healthy this is too. With all that oatmeal it’s basically breakfast food, eh? :)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
Okay, one of the things I totally want to finally get around to making this summer is a fruit crisp! So lovely!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
Never say never!! Did I think I would pretty much be going Paleo and doing a Whole 30 next month? HECK NO. But stranger things happen… ;)

This looks awesome, and better yet, I’ve already got all the ingredients to make this! My middle school science experiment was whether kale grows better with warm or cold water. Except then I forgot to water them at all, so my conclusions were, “Plants grow better with water.” Clearly, I was not meant to be a scientist.

Peachy keen, jelly bean! Sorry. Couldn’t help myself. But I’d be more than happy to help myself to a few servings of this. And bonus points for being crazy easy to throw together. And being crazy healthy without even tasting like it. That’s just begging for a scoop of ice cream to dirty things up a little ;)

SPOILER ALERT!!
I remember the peach pit project well–I got the peaches from a generous local grocer , and you did the rest. We knew you had a future in food, health, and pit measuring!
Hilary says
Yum! This looks so easy, quick and delicious! I can’t wait to try this out for a summer dessert!
Tara says
fruit crisps are the best! this looks so easy to whip up on a random night when you want something sweet. I’ll definitely try this soon! :)
Nicole Rosalyn says
Hey girl, you say not to melt the coconut oil? But what if it’s already melted due to extreme summer temperatures? :p Should I refrigerate it for a little while?
