Summertime is fruit season! We’re loving the juicy peaches, watermelon, and colorful berries that are in abundance right now. Nothing is more healthy, light, and delicious, as a fresh fruit salad in the summer. For an extra sweet treat on occasion, we love incorporating summer fruit into a baked crisp! This summer peach crisp recipe calls for yellow peaches, but feel free to use blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, apples, or any fruit you love. This recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free and is a fun (and easy) dessert option for summer gatherings!
