Sweet, golden, and perfectly juicy this little peach crisp is everything I want in a summer dessert. It’s cozy and warm, but still fresh and fruity, which makes it ideal for those hot days when I’m craving something sweet but not too heavy. The best part? It’s made just for one, so no sharing required. With a simple oat-almond topping and a quick bake or air fry, this treat comes together fast and tastes like a bite of sunshine.
Method
1. Make the Peach Filling
To start, take one ripe yellow peach and chop it into small bite-sized pieces. You want the pieces to be evenly sized so they cook uniformly. Place the chopped peach into a small mixing bowl. Add one tablespoon of honey or maple syrup for sweetness, a quarter teaspoon of ground cinnamon for warmth, and a quarter teaspoon of arrowroot starch to help thicken the juices as the peach bakes. Mix everything together gently using a spoon or fork until the peach is well coated and glossy. Set the bowl aside while you prepare the crisp topping.
2. Mix the Crisp Topping
In a separate bowl, add two tablespoons of rolled oats, two tablespoons of almond flour, and one teaspoon of coconut sugar. Add a small splash of vanilla extract to bring in that warm, bakery-like aroma. Then, drop in one tablespoon of almond butter or peanut butter. Use a fork or your fingers to mix everything together until the mixture becomes slightly crumbly and holds together in little clumps. You’re looking for a texture that’s not too wet but sticks enough to form a crispy, golden topping when baked.
3. Assemble and Bake
Take a ramekin or small oven-safe baking dish and spoon the peach mixture into it, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Then, sprinkle the crisp topping over the peaches, doing your best to cover the fruit completely so it doesn’t dry out while baking. Once everything is assembled, place the ramekin in a preheated oven or air fryer set to 350°F. Bake for about 10 to 15 minutes. Around the 10-minute mark, start checking for doneness. You’re looking for a golden-brown topping and peach juices bubbling around the edges. Every oven or air fryer is slightly different, so keep a close eye to avoid over-baking.
4. Serve Warm
Once it’s done baking, carefully remove the ramekin and let it cool for just a minute or two. The crisp will be hot, but letting it rest briefly helps the flavors settle. At this point, you can enjoy it as-is, or top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of coconut whipped cream, or whatever your heart desires. Then grab a spoon, dig in, and enjoy every sweet, warm bite.

For the Peach Filling
1 ripe yellow peach, chopped
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon arrowroot starch
For the Crisp Topping
2 tablespoons rolled oats
2 tablespoons almond flour
1 teaspoon coconut sugar
Splash of vanilla extract
1 tablespoon almond butter or peanut butter
Directions
- Make the Peach Filling
Start by chopping one ripe yellow peach into small pieces. In a small bowl, toss the peach with honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, and arrowroot starch. Stir well so the peach is nicely coated in all that sweet and spiced goodness. - Mix the Crisp Topping
In a separate bowl, combine rolled oats, almond flour, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and almond butter. Use a fork or your fingers to mix it until crumbly and slightly sticky. This will be your golden, crunchy topping. - Assemble and Bake
Add the peach mixture to a ramekin or small oven-safe dish. Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the peaches, making sure it covers them all the way. Bake or air fry at 350°F for 10–15 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling at the edges. Keep an eye on it around the 10-minute mark so it doesn’t overcook. - Serve Warm
Let it cool just a minute or two, then top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or coconut whip if you’re feeling fancy. Grab a spoon and enjoy.
Notes
- Peach ripeness matters. If your peach is underripe, it might not get soft enough during the short bake time. Look for one that gives just a little when pressed.
- Watch the crisp Air fryers and ovens can vary in heat, so keep an eye around the 10-minute mark to avoid burning the topping.
- Mix topping well. If the topping looks too dry, you can add a tiny bit more almond butter or a splash of plant milk to help it stick together.
Serving Suggestions
This peach crisp is lovely all on its own, but adding a cold topping takes it to another level. Try it with
- A scoop of vanilla bean ice cream
- Coconut whipped cream
- A drizzle of almond butter
- A sprinkle of granola for extra crunch
Fun Fact
Did you know peaches are actually related to almonds? That soft fuzz on a peach comes from the same family of stone fruits that includes plums, nectarines, and you guessed it almonds! So it totally makes sense that almond flour and almond butter go perfectly with peaches in this recipe.
