The last few weeks have been a blueberry frenzy around here and this Healthy Blueberry Peach Crumble recipe is wrapping up the party... in a big way.

A crunchy and cinnamon-spiced topping covers sweet berries and peaches, creating the kind of flavor that simultaneously throws us back to the comfort of summer's past and surprises us with how healthy it is.

That's right, with no processed sugar, wheat products, or animal products, this recipe is naturally processed sugar-free, gluten-free, and vegan.

So, you can have it for dessert, but go ahead and also have it for breakfast. Or a snack. Or all three. Promise you won't regret it!

To keep this recipe gluten-free, make sure to use gluten-free old-fashioned oats. Some brands process their oats in facilities that also process wheat products or flour. Those that are labeled gluten-free do not.

Enjoy this gluten-free peach crisp right out of the oven -- the aromas will make it hard to resist! -- or reheat it later. Though this dessert needs to be stored in the refrigerator for long periods of time, it can safely sit out in the heat at barbecues or potlucks before serving.

The search for a delicious and easy dessert recipe is over! This peach blueberry crumble comes together easily and delights with the fresh flavors of summer.

Ingredients:

• Blueberries
• Peaches
• Old fashioned oats
• Gluten-free 1-to-1 flour - I love Bob's Red Mill brand
• Maple syrup - use pure maple syrup to keep this recipe processed sugar-free
• Ground cinnamon
• Lemon juice - fresh or bottled
• Coconut oil
• Superfine almond meal (optional)
• Sliced almonds (optional)

Substitutions:

• Fruit - make this fruit crisp your own and use any combination of 5 cups of peaches, blueberries, raspberries, plums, blackberries, or cherries for this recipe.
• Flour - all-purpose flour can be used in place of the gluten-free 1-to-1 flour, but the recipe will no longer be gluten-free.
• Almond meal - if you don't have or don't want to use almond meal, you can simply omit it from the recipe
• Coconut oil - softened unsalted butter can substitute for the coconut oil

How to make peach blueberry crumble:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, peaches, gluten-free flour, almond flour (if using), cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently fold or stir together until combined.
2. Pour the maple syrup and lemon juice over the fruit mixture. Gently fold or stir the fruit until combined. Pour the fruit into a prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
3. In a medium mixing bowl, gently whisk together gluten-free flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and almonds (if using) until combined.
4. Add the coconut oil and maple syrup to the crisp topping and cut in with a fork or massage in with your fingers until small clumps form. Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the fruit.
5. Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juice bubbles.

Recipe pro-tips:

• Use old-fashioned oats - not quick-cooking oats. Old fashioned oats are heartier and will crisp up better than the quick-cooking type will.
• Cut the peaches into uniform pieces - this will help them cook evenly and get nice and tender.
