This paleo peach crisp has a juicy sweet peach filling with a toasty crisp topping that’s out of this world delicious! It’s truly the best peach crisp you’ll ever make. A fast family favorite for peach season, this crisp is paleo, vegan and gluten free.

This is a special recipe, because I collaborated with one of my favorite food bloggers, Kale Junkie, to create the best ever peach crisp!
When Nicole asked me to co-create a recipe with her I was totally honored – she is such an inspiration to me!
Between her no-fail healthy recipes, gorgeous photography and lifestyle content and inspiring messages, she’s absolutely one of my favorite people to follow.
If you’re not familiar with Nicole yet I highly recommend you head over to her blog, Kale Junkie, to see what she’s all about!

What You Need to Make the Best Paleo Peach Crisp
Nicole created the juicy sweet peach filling for the recipe and we used my go-to crisp recipe for the topping!
The result? I ate half the dish myself. And not sorry at all, because it’s probably the most delicious thing I’ve had in the month of June!
Here’s everything you’ll need to make the crisp:
Filling:
- fresh peaches
- coconut sugar or maple sugar
- tapioca flour (or arrowroot)
- sea salt
- cinnamon
- lemon juice
Topping:
- blanched almond flour
- maple sugar
- refined coconut oil, solid
- raw walnuts, or other nuts like almonds or pecans
- unsweetened coconut, flaked or shredded
- pure vanilla extract
- cinnamon
- sea salt

How to Make This Easy Paleo Peach Crisp
Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9” baking dish or deep dish pie plate with coconut oil.
For the topping, pulse the ingredients in a food processor until crumbly, chill it while you prepare the filling.
Peel the peaches and cut into 1/2 inch slices.
Add the sliced peaches to a medium bowl along with the filling ingredients and toss to coat well.
Transfer peach mixture to the greased dish.
Crumble the topping over the filling evenly and bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and topping is golden brown. You can tent the top with foil for the last 10-15 minutes if it begins to brown too much.
Allow the crisp to sit at least 15 minutes before serving to set. Serve alone or with coconut vanilla ice cream. Easy peasy! Enjoy!

Substitutions for this Peach Crisp
For the filling arrowroot flour and tapioca can be easily swapped out. Maple sugar and coconut sugar are also interchangeable.
I like to think of coconut sugar as “dark brown” sugar and maple sugar as “light brown”. I personally love the flavor of maple sugar so I use it in many of my recipes.
Maple sugar also doesn’t burn easily the way coconut sugar sometimes does in a topping like this one. However, if you do use coconut sugar, a foil tent with prevent any burning!
If you don’t have access to fresh peaches, you can sub in thawed and drained frozen peaches here. However, fresh always tastes better!

I hope you love this peach crisp that my friend Nicole from Kale Junkie and I created together!

This is currently baking in my oven!! The icing on the cake is to die for! I’m looking forward to trying the rest.
Do you need to use the coconut flakes or shredded? My husband is not a fan of coconut.
Super good flavor, but I could not get mine crispy at all. Very mushy. Any suggestions?

Usually I find these recipes are great. I made this one and for me, it didn’t work very well. the coconut I found didn’t go with the peaches and it was on the sweet side. Even with foil in place the top burned a bit – maybe because of the nuts – and didn’t crisp either.
this Paleo peach crisp looks AMAZING!
