Late summer, farm-fresh peaches are the inspiration for this luscious peach crisp. The welcome sunny flavors of rosemary and extra virgin olive oil shine through, reminiscent of the traditional flavors of the Mediterranean, where stone fruit grow alongside lemons, olives, and rosemary. I am so fortunate to have all three of these elements growing in my garden, and they blend together well in this simple fruit-forward dessert, Peach Crisp with Rosemary and Olive Oil.
Based on only 7 ingredients (not including pantry staples), you can get this light, healthy recipe done in minutes. Serve it warm with a plant-based ice “cream” or lemon sorbet to add a boost of cool, creaminess.
With a rosemary infused peach filling and an olive oil oat crunchy topping, this dessert is very low in added sugars, packed with antioxidant-rich fruit, heart healthy fats, and whole grains. You can enjoy this vegan fruit crisp as a treat you can feel really good about. Make it gluten-free easily by swapping out the wheat flour for a gluten-free flour blend.
Try a variety of peaches for this recipe, including white or yellow types, or even nectarines. (I used a blend of white and yellow peaches in the photos here). When fresh peaches are not in season, turn to canned or frozen peaches for this healthy fruit crisp recipe.
You can also substitute a different type of seasonal fruit in this recipe, dependent upon the seasons, such as apples, persimmons, or cherries. This recipe is light and healthy enough to enjoy for breakfast.
