⭐ Why this recipe is so good

Perfect sweetness - juicy peaches are such a delicious summer fruit, and baking them brings out the flavor even more.

Gluten free recipe - these baked peaches can be gluten free using certified oats for that dietary requirement.

Easy to make - a very simple recipe perfect for a weekend afternoon!

🍑 Ingredients

individually labelled peaches, oats, quinoa, pumpkin seeds, coconut and honey.

This recipe uses typical crisp ingredients, and fresh juicy peaches. You will need:

  • Peaches: make sure they are ripe, as this will ensure they are full of flavor. Depending on whether you are serving with other dishes or not, I would suggest two peaches per person. Unless you are hungry of course . . .
  • Oats: the main ingredient of the crumble topping. Use gluten free such as the Bob's Red Mill organic gluten free old fashioned oats, if required.
  • Quinoa: you can do all oatmeal, but the quinoa gives a nice nutty flavor to the topping. Make sure to pre-cook it!
  • Pumpkin seeds: add a nice crunch to the topping. I like Terrasoul organic pumpkin seeds.
  • Desiccated coconut: for a hint of creaminess. If you are using larger flakes, you may wish to pulse blend so they are smaller in size.
  • Honey: to sweeten the crumble topping. Using a runny honey is the easiest option.
  • Butter: use the type that works best for you, preferably with as few additives as possible.
  • Ginger and cardamom: optional, for a hint of spice if you would like it.

📖 Variations on ingredients

I haven't tried it myself, as the quinoa gives a nice flavor, but I think all oats would work equally well if you prefer.

Not keen on pumpkin seeds? Simply leave out or swap for another nut or seed (check histamine levels if you are on a low histamine diet).

Maple syrup can be used in place of honey if you prefer.

If you like a hint of spice, then a teaspoon of cardamom added to the oat topping would be lovely. Or cinnamon if you tolerate (debated as to whether it is low histamine or not).

🔪 Step by step instructions

Making this baked peaches with a crumble topping recipe is very simple, with just a few steps:

A very simple fall recipe, and one that kids can help make too (obviously watch them around the oven!). But stirring the oat mixture is always something my nieces love to do, and putting it into the peaches is a fun (but messy!) job they really enjoy.

Step 1. Cook the quinoa according to packet instructions. It usually takes 12-15 minutes.

Step 2. Slice the peaches in half, and remove the stone. Then scoop out a little of the filling so you have room for the oat crumble topping. Drizzle the peaches with butter and honey, and then place on a lined baking tray. Bake for 25 minutes.

Step 3. While the peaches are baking make your oat / quinoa topping. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir well to combine so that it becomes a slightly sticky consistency.

Step 4: Spoon the oatmeal topping into your peaches and then bake for about 10 minutes.

4. Spoon the mixture into your peaches and bake for around 10-12 minutes. The topping should be light golden brown. Then transfer to your plates and enjoy!

💭 Recipe notes and tips

  • Make sure you use juicy peaches that are sufficiently ripe so they are full of flavor.
  • Add other (low histamine, if required) nuts and seeds to the oat mixture, if you like a heartier topping. My low histamine nuts and seeds overview should be helpful!
  • Fancy a hint of spice? A sprinkle of cardamom would be lovely and very 'fall' as well.
  • Some people on a low histamine diet do OK with the Haagen Daaz vanilla ice cream, which would work perfectly with the peaches. Check ingredients before trying though.
  • This isn't a perfect looking recipe! The topping is a bit messy but that's part of the fun. It's taste that matters right?!
  • Not a fan of peaches? See below for a crumble topped baked apples recipe.

Hi, I’m Claire. After a diagnosis of MCAS I began to follow a low histamine diet, which has helped me manage my symptoms. Here I hope to show that a restrictive diet can still be full of flavourful meals, and help you enjoy being creative in the kitchen.
