Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375F. Butter a 8×8 inch baking dish with vegan butter or vegetable oil.
In a bowl, combine the peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, salt, ground cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir to combine.
Pour the peaches into the greased 8x8 baking dish.
In a bowl, mix together gluten-free certified oats, gluten-free flour blend, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and melted vegan butter.
Crumble the oat topping over the peach mixture, leaving some areas of peaches visible.
Bake the peach crisp at 375F for about 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
Serve warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream. Store leftovers in the refrigerator covered for 2-3 days with aluminum foil or in an airtight container.

Notes
If you are vegan, be sure that your sugar is vegan. Some sugars are processed with bone char, which makes them not vegan.
If you are not vegan, you can use regular granulated sugar, brown sugar and regular butter for this recipe.
If you are gluten-free, be sure to use purity protocol oats in this recipe which are grown in fields that are not co-mingled with gluten and are manufactured in a gluten-free facility. I recommend GF Harvest oats.
To store leftover peach crisp, place it covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days for best results. You can heat leftovers in the oven or microwave before serving.
To freeze peach crisp, place the baked peach crisp in the freezer tightly covered for up to 3 months. I recommend baking the peach crisp in a freezer-safe container that you won't mind leaving in the freezer for extended amounts of time. You can also transfer the peach crisp to a freezer-safe container after baking if you prefer.
