Yield:
1 11x17-inch baking dish

Ingredients

  • 6 cups sliced peeled fresh ripe peaches (about 5)

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar plus 1/3 cup, divided

  • ½ cup almond flour

  • cup packed light brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed

  • cup gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats (see Tip)

  • ½ cup sliced almonds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat a 11-by-7-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Toss peaches with cornstarch and 1/4 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl. Spread the peach mixture in the prepared baking dish.

  2. Combine almond flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and the remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, work butter into the mixture until it's pea-sized. Stir in oats and almonds. Distribute the oat mixture evenly over the peaches.

  3. Bake the crisp until golden and bubbly, about 40 minutes.

Tips

Tip: People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should use oats labeled "gluten-free," as oats are often cross-contaminated with wheat and barley.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
