Go fresh peaches? I GOT YOU!

I might as well be from Georgia! Peach and pecan in a healthier version, I bring you:

HEALTHY PEACH PECAN CRUMBLE

WHAT

  • 4 extra large peaches, diced (or 5-6 medium)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon, divided
  • ¾ c old-fashioned oats
  • ¼ c flaxseed meal (or almond meal, or whole wheat flour)
  • 2 tbsp honey or agave
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (or margarine, or coconut oil)
  • 1/4 or 1/2 c chopped pecans (I LOVE, so I used 1/2 cup)

HOW

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, and lightly coat an 8”-square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, or soft butter.
  1. In a medium bowl, toss together the diced peaches, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon until thoroughly combined.
  1. In a separate bowl, mix together the oats, flaxseed meal, and remaining cinnamon. Add in the honey and butter, mixing until completely incorporated.
  1. Spread the peach mixture into the prepared pan, and evenly sprinkle the oat crumbs on top. Sprinkle pecans over mixture.
  1. Bake at 350°F for 35-45 minutes, or until the peach juice is bubbling and the oat mixture and pecans turn crunchy.
  2. Cool completely to room temperature. For best results, let the crumble rest for 2 hours after coming to room temperature before serving to allow the juices to thicken.
