Ingredients
  

For the Peach Filling:

4 large ripe peaches, sliced (about 4 cups)

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the Coconut Crisp Topping:

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted (or unsalted butter, melted)

1/4 cup maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional for Serving:

Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream

Extra toasted coconut flakes for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare Peaches: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches with granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the peaches evenly and set aside to allow the flavors to meld for about 10 minutes.

      Make the Crisp Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt. Pour in the melted coconut oil and maple syrup, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until crumbly and well combined.

        Assemble the Crisp: In a greased 8x8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized ovenproof dish, evenly distribute the peach mixture. Then, sprinkle the coconut crisp topping over the peaches, ensuring an even layer covers the fruit.

          Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbly.

            Serve: Let the coconut peach crisp cool for about 10 minutes before serving. For an indulgent touch, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, garnished with extra toasted coconut flakes if desired.

              Enjoy: Dig into this tropical delight while it's warm and fresh from the oven!
