It’s Monday and the start of a brand new week! I don’t know about you, but I’m finally settling into August nicely and the craziness of a busy month is in full swing! Ahhhhh!
Despite juggling a few projects and new things, I’m so grateful to have come to this pivotal point in my life when it comes to making specific changes to being better.
It’s definitely all about Self-Care and Wellness for me during this Second Quarter! What about you?
One of my main areas of improvement is definitely my eating habits.
I know that Orchids + Sweet Tea has some really mouth-watering foods/sweets, however, my goal for the rest of the year AND permanently is to begin eating even healthier! I’ll be trying a few GF (Gluten-Free) recipes and a lot more plant-based as well as Vegan options to keep my eating habits in the right direction.
My weekend has been spent taking full inventory of my current ingredients that are in my household and strategizing about the new ingredients that will be added.
While I won’t be devoted to any specific diet, I have decided to greatly eliminate any red meats and minimize chicken! Instead, I’ll do a lot more #MeatlessMondays (especially on Orchids + Sweet Tea) and consume seafood in between.
Speaking of #MeatlessMondays, have you tried our recent Breakfast Peanut Butter Banana Chia Seeds Oats or No-Churn Vanilla Ice Cream + Rainbow Sprinkles? Both recipes are so awesome and really, really easy to make!
However, if you’re into more Vegan options, you can check out our Vegan Bites archives to find some really great recipes!
Whelp, let’s dig right into this recipe, shall we?
Let’s dig right into this recipe, shall we?
Start by pre-heating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lightly grease each ramekin with butter and set aside.
In a large bowl, stir together the peaches, blueberries, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, arrow-root, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt, until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, add the almond flour, the remaining 1/4 cup of maple syrup, vegan butter, and gluten-free oats and using your fingers, gently rub together mixture until medium chunks appear and it looks “crumbly”. Add chopped pecans and stir together well.
Spoon the peach-blueberry mixture into the bottoms of each ramekin (about 2 Tbsps) and top with flour-oats mixture. Repeat until all ramekins are filled. Bake for about 45 minutes or until fruit becomes bubbly and topping is browned.
Once finished, remove from oven and let them cool for about 15-20 minutes. Serve in individual ramekins and enjoy!
Bon Appetite!

Tips | Notes:
USING FROZEN FRUIT: When using frozen peaches and/or blueberries instead of fresh ones, always toss them 1-2 Tbsps of flour or starch before adding them to the recipe or other ingredients.
STACRH/THICKENER: If you don’t have or don’t want to use Arrowroot starch, you can always use Tapioca Flour, regular Cornstarch, or flour instead. Either substitution will help to thicken the mixture just fine.
STORAGE: Best if served on the same day of making crisp. If made ahead of time (a few hours before serving), simply re-warm in the oven on 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Leftovers should be stored in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.

I absolutely love your food photography photos and I love that this recipe can be made with frozen fruit.
Never thought of the peach, blueberry, maple combination before but it sounds wonderful!
We do meatless Mondays around our house quite often. This crisp looks like the perfect dessert for any weeknight.
Yes, I try to balance no-meat days also! It’s refreshing to be able to indulge in something that is healthy! It’s the best!
Fruit crisps are the best super easy desserts of the summer. Always love maple syrup as a sweetner.
Yes, they really are! My new Summer go-to!

Yes, I’ve learned that I may have a slight intolerance, so I’ll be doing a few Gluten-Free recipes! I’m sure that your son would love this, Jayne. My little guy sure did!
