Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 4 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced (about 4 cups)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Optional Topping: 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
  • Optional Topping: 1 tablespoon raw sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, egg, baking powder, and sea salt. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  3. Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish using your fingers.
  4. In a large bowl, toss sliced peaches with granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
  5. Pour the peach filling evenly over the crust. Sprinkle sliced almonds and raw sugar on top if desired.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles gently. Tent with foil halfway through if edges brown too quickly.
  7. Cool completely for at least one hour before slicing to allow the filling to set.

Notes

Use finely ground almond flour to avoid a gritty crust. Do not overmix the crust dough. Press crust evenly to avoid soggy or burnt spots. Taste peaches before adding sugar to adjust sweetness. Cool pie completely before slicing. Tent with foil if crust edges brown too fast. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For a dairy-free crust, substitute egg with a flax egg. For nut-free crust, use oat flour or gluten-free all-purpose flour.
