There are not too many things better than a warm peach crisp. In fact, it’s pretty high up there on my list of favorite things.
What makes this peach crisp so good?!
- Warm peaches that release so many juices and flavors when baking
- A healthy crumble topping using coconut sugar and coconut oil
- Crunchy golden oats and chopped pecans paired with soft sweet peaches is truly a match made in heaven
Ingredients for vegan peach crisp
For the peach base:
- Fresh peaches
- Cane sugar
- Lemon juice
- Corn starch
- Vanilla
For the oat topping:
- Oats
- Coconut sugar (can use brown sugar)
- Pecans
- Whole wheat flour (substitute with gluten-free flour to make this recipe GF)
- Coconut oil
- Salt
- Cinnamon
- Baking powder
How to make vegan peach crisp
Start by greasing the baking pan (or cast iron skillet) with some coconut oil and add all the ingredients for the peaches. When this mixture sits, the juices from the peaches release. The cornstarch though helps to ensure your peach crisp isn’t too juicy!
Do you have to peel peaches for crisp?
Nope! I personally do not remove the skin from my peaches. You can if you wish, but I don’t think it is necessary.
Add all the ingredients (minus the oats) and cut the solid coconut oil into the mixture.
Tip: If the coconut oil you are using is liquid, just pop it in the fridge for a few minutes to firm up.
Once the coconut oil is incorporated, stir in the oats.
Bake until the top is golden brown. Underneath the peaches are juicy and soft!
What to serve with peach crisp
Nothing beats a nice cold dollop of vanilla ice cream. One of my favorite vegan ice cream brands is So Delicious!
Can you substitute fresh peaches for frozen
Frozen peaches can be used if fresh peaches are not in season. Just add 10-15 minutes extra in bake time if the peaches are coming directly from the freezer. You can thaw them out before baking too. In that case, you wouldn’t want to add any more baking time.
Keep in mind frozen peaches might be juicer than fresh peaches when baked.
Just whatever you do, do not use canned peaches in syrup!
How to reheat peach crisp
Keep leftovers for peach crisp in the fridge. When ready to reheat, you can heat in the oven on 350 for 10-15 minutes. For all my impatient friends (myself included) it can be reheated in the microwave as well.

Mmmm, peach season! This recipe is a great way to add some variety to my peach eating, since I usually just eat them straight. Yummy!
Thanks, Catherine!
Iām curious what size cast iron skillet you used. I have a 12ā skillet – would this be too large for the recipe as written? Thank you!
Mine is 10.25″ so your crisp would just be a little thinner! You would want to watch the bake time as well.
Ooh! I love anything involving fresh peaches, and these look so perfect. I usually eat them straight or toss them into a smoothie, but this recipe looks yummy.
Yes not as healthy but so delicious! š
Yum! It’s been WAY too long since I’ve made crisp… Definitely giving your recipe a try as soon as we get settled into our new kitchen!
Perfect way to break in the new kitchen!
