Cashew Free Peach & Coconut Crumble
Juicy summer peaches meet a golden, fragrant topping in this fruit crumble that feels like pure comfort in a baking dish. The filling gets its silky body from arrowroot starch and a touch of honey, while fresh lemon juice and Ceylon cinnamon keep everything bright and warmly spiced. The crumble itself is built on cassava flour and shredded coconut, giving it a satisfying, slightly chewy crunch that sets beautifully in the oven — no oats, no nuts, no cashews anywhere in sight. Many store-bought or restaurant desserts sneak nut-based flours or mixed-nut toppings into crumbles, so making this from scratch gives you full control over every ingredient. Coconut oil binds the topping into those irresistible irregular clumps that crisp up and turn golden while the peaches bubble underneath. Let it rest just long enough for the filling to thicken, then serve it warm — ideally with a generous scoop of your favorite frozen dessert on top.
