Is it a Crisp or a Crumble?!

I’ll be honest, I just totally googled the difference between a “crisp” and a “crumble”, and confirmed…they are the same thing. I also spent far too long trying to decide between calling this a Peach and Apple Crisp or an Apple and Peach Crumble. I went for the the former (#SEOproblems) but I’d still think that a Late Summer Fruit Crumble is a way sexier name. Technically it’s different from an apple and peach cobbler…I digress! Nevertheless the flavors are still the same.

Ingredients in Apple + Peach Crumble

  • Fresh Apples – I like honeycrisp apples, braeburn or fuji in my apple crumble but use your favorite!
  • Fresh Peaches – Ideally fresh summer peaches! I wouldn’t recommend canned peaches for this recipe as they will affect the sweetness.
  • Cinnamon – get the ground stuff. You’ll use this in the filling and crumble. If you’d like a more traditional apple crisp recipe you can also add a little nutmeg.
  • Coconut Sugar – you can also use light brown sugar. You’ll use this in the filling and crumble.
  • Orange juice – this is the secret ingredient! Use store-bought or freshly squeezed
  • Tapioca flour – or arrowroot flour or cornstarch. You could use regular flour but I find the fruit tastes lighter with tapioca flour
  • Almond Meal – I use almond meal in this peach crumble to keep it gluten-free but you can use regular all-purpose flour instead if you prefer or have a nut allergy.
  • Rolled Oats – These are key! Do not use steel-cut oats.
  • Coconut Oil – This recipe is dairy-free if you use coconut oil but if you only have unsalted butter you can easily use that in place. Vegan butter should also work.

  1. I made this last night and as a crisp/crumble lover i was keen to try this healthier version. It did not disappoint! I used rapadura sugar as i had it on hand and it worked perfectly. I also melted the butter and mixed it through the topping instead of crumbling it (i’m always hopeless at this part for some reason). The recipe got a huge tick of approval from the hubby as well. Will definitely be making it again!






  2. wow this turned out to be super delicious. The taste was perfect, the shape and smell was mouth watering. Thanks for sharing

  3. Thanks Davida….We just picked all these peaches and I was searching around for gluten free Crisp and this looks great. I like the idea of tapioca flour which I use already for some baking.

  4. Oh, this looks so amazing and definitely something I’d eat for both dessert AND breakfast. I love this time of year. The seasons are on the verge of changing here in DC, and I’m welcoming the crisp air with open arms! I’ve already noticed my desire ramping up to dive into some delicious comfort recipes, too! Soups, baked goods, warm apple cider (spiked, of course ;)).

  5. Ooh, yes! This recipe just looks to die for! And thank you for disclosing the difference between a crisp and a crumble, because I had no idea! Glad that there isn’t one to begin with! LOL!

  6. Mmmm I love the idea of mixing pears and apples! And who knew, a crisp and a crumble are one in the same! Both please 🙂
