Ingredients:
For the Fruit Filling:
- 4 cups sliced fresh peaches
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
For the Oat Topping:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil (or vegan butter)
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine the sliced peaches, blackberries, cornstarch, maple syrup, and lemon juice. Ensure the fruit is evenly coated.
- Pour the fruit mixture into a baking dish (an 8×8 inch or 9-inch pie dish works well).
- In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, brown sugar, melted coconut oil, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until crumbly.
- Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit filling.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, possibly with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream!
Tips and Variations:
- Use Frozen Fruit: If fresh fruit isn’t available, frozen peaches and blackberries work perfectly fine. Just thaw them slightly and drain any excess liquid before using.
- Add Nuts: Mix chopped pecans or walnuts into the oat topping for added crunch.
- Spice it Up: A pinch of nutmeg or ginger in the filling will add warmth and complexity.
