Notes
How to reheat peach crisp: Heat oven to 350º F, and add the peach crisp back into the oven (in baking dish) for 25 minutes, or until bubbling, being careful not to burn the topping.
Can I freeze peach crisp?: Yes! Freeze the baked crisp, and allow it to thaw prior to heating it up. Follow the instructions above for reheating a peach crisp.
Can I make a paleo / grain free peach crisp?: Yes! Omit the oatmeal and oat flour, and sub in 1 cup of almond flour + 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (like pecans) to keep this grain free. Reduce baking time to 16 minutes after adding the topping to prevent the nuts from burning.
Is Peach Crisp Vegan?: Yes, it is vegan as written. Serve it with a coconut milk frozen dessert!
