Coconut Peach Crumble + VIDEO

Take advantage of the season’s sweetest and ripest fruit with this Coconut Peach Crumble. And don’t forget that scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top.   

      
The “dog days of summer” are upon us in a big way. I always associate August with lazy, hot, sometimes humid days that seem to last forever and the fun never seems to end. August days feel like Sunday, every day. It’s also my birthday month, so a little celebrating every, single day is important.

And then there are the peaches. Here in the Pacific Northwest peaches are now ripe and ready at the market and it’s time put them in all the things! I especially love making my Fresh Peach and Cinnamon Ice Cream several times during this season. And Frozen Peach Margaritas are an absolute must (pro tip: freeze summer peaches and make these margaritas year round).

And when it is comes to a crumble topping, I am so particular. I prefer the complex taste of dark brown sugar, with rolled oats thrown into the mix. Since I used ginger with the peaches, I added cinnamon to the crumble to round it all out. It’s kind of fantastic.

Peeling peaches are easy. Just score the bottom of your ripe peaches with a knife and place them into a pot of boiling water for about 20-30 seconds. Remove them and drop into a bowl of ice water, letting them cool down for a couple of minutes. The skin will peel off easily from where you scored each peach.

Once the peaches are peeled they just need to be sliced. The ingredients couldn’t be simpler to put together from there. Find your prettiest pie dish, bake it in the oven and enjoy every bite.

If you choose to serve your crumble without ice cream, don’t worry, it will still be fabulous.

You are soooo going to fall in love with this dessert.

Good luck saying no to a second helping.

How many different ways can you enjoy summer peaches? So, so many. Here are 12 Ways to Creative with Sweet Summer Peaches that you cannot miss out on…trust me. Have you ever had Peach Salsa? You need to give it a try. And this Peach Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting sounds like the best idea ever. And what about Chipotle Peach BBQ Chicken? It sounds amazing. And don’t forget to make yourself a big pitcher of Peach Lemonade. You won’t regret it.

Two years ago I made these Watermelon Banana Rum Coolers for a party and they were a hit. Four years ago I posted about these Buttermilk-Maple French Toast Muffins and they have been such a popular recipe. If you need a great summer side dish, this Couscous with Dried Fruit and Feta I posted six years ago is pretty awesome. Seven summers ago I made this Snickerdoodle Ice Cream and it has remained a family favorite. If you need a refreshing drink, this post from eight years ago about Raspberry and Peach Fuzzy Melba cocktails is still on point.
