Ingredients:

  • 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5g) lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 1 cup (90g) gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1 cup (110g) almond flour
  • 1/2 cup (115g) coconut oil, chilled and solid
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt until the cornstarch has dissolved into a smooth slurry.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into a 9-inch baking dish or cast iron skillet, spreading the fruit into an even layer.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free oats, almond flour, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Cut in the chilled coconut oil using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized clumps.
  6. Drizzle in the maple syrup and stir until the topping is moist but still pebbly.
  7. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the peaches, leaving a small gap at the edges to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the fruit juices are bubbling and the topping is deep mahogany gold.
  9. Let the crumble rest for 10 minutes before serving.
