gluten free vegan peach almond crostata

July 12, 2016 by Sarah 7 Comments

Gluten Free Vegan Peach Almond Crostata. Flaky rustic crust, filled with fresh peaches and topped with a nutty crumb topping. Baked to golden deliciousness!When peach season arrives, I can only think of one thing. Pie. Peach pie, served warm with a ginormous scoop of dairy free vanilla ice cream. The best way to enjoy fresh, juicy peaches!

Sometimes you just need to get in the kitchen and make a pie. It’s therapeutic, it really is. Rolling out the dough, filling it with sweet fruit and baking to bubbly, golden deliciousness. Then comes the best part. You get to dig into the first slice. You have to reward yourself for all of that hard work. Making pies is a labor of love and so worth it!

Gluten Free Vegan Peach Almond Crostata. Flaky rustic crust, made from Bob's Red Mill gluten free pie crust mix. This pie is baked to golden deliciousness!My go-to ingredient for pie making is Bob’s Red Mill gluten free pie mix. It is the perfect flour blend for pies because it is so light. It creates a delicate, flakey crust. The way it should be. Keep it stocked in your pantry, my friends. It’s great for mini tarts and hand pies too.

This rustic peach almond crostata is one of my favorite types of pies. Free-form. Just roll, fill, fold over the edges and call it good. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but it’s always delicious. I tried something new and added an almond crumb topping to this crostata. It really takes it over the edge in the yummy department. Adds a crunch and texture that compliments the baked peaches. Peach pie for the win!

    This looks incredible! I can’t wait to try the new pie crust mix… But I haven’t found it at my local stores, and I was wondering if you think it would work for now if I use one of your other pie crust recipes until I can get my hands on Bob’s for next time?

      You can use my flour blend in place of the pie crust mix, just be sure to use the white rice flour version.

    This looks delicious! If I were to us regular butter would I still need shortening?

      No, you could just use regular butter. Enjoy!
