Ingredients

• 2 cups sliced peaches (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

How To Make Easy Freezer-Ready Peach Crisp Pucks

Step 1: Prepare the Peach Filling

Start by slicing your peaches if they aren’t pre-sliced. You can use fresh peaches for a juicy, vibrant flavor or frozen peaches for convenience and availability year-round. If using frozen, just make sure to thaw and drain any excess liquid so your pucks don’t get soggy.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir everything together until evenly mixed. These dry ingredients will form the crumbly topping and base of your pucks.

Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients and Nuts

Pour in the melted coconut oil and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir well until the ingredients come together in a crumbly texture. Then fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans, which add a satisfying crunch and nutty flavor.

Step 4: Assemble the Pucks

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using your hands, press about 2 tablespoons of the oat mixture into small discs—these are your crisp pucks. Press firmly but don’t over-compact. Place a spoonful of peach slices on top of each disc, then sprinkle a little more oat mixture over the peaches to create a crisp layer.

Step 5: Freeze the Pucks

Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the pucks freeze solid for at least 2 hours. Once frozen, transfer the pucks to a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag. This step ensures you can store them long-term without them sticking together.

Step 6: Bake and Enjoy

When you’re ready to enjoy your Easy Freezer-Ready Peach Crisp Pucks, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the frozen pucks on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.

Expert Tips

• Feel free to swap the coconut oil for melted butter if you prefer a richer flavor.
• For an extra burst of flavor, sprinkle a pinch of ground ginger or cardamom into the dry mix.

How to Store Leftovers

These Easy Freezer-Ready Peach Crisp Pucks are perfect for meal prep because they freeze beautifully. Store them in an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. To reheat, bake them straight from the freezer as described above, or microwave for about 30-45 seconds if you’re in a hurry (though baking yields the best crisp texture). If you happen to have any leftovers after baking, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and gently reheat in the oven to restore their crunch.

FAQ

Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh or frozen?

Canned peaches are usually packed in syrup and very soft, which can make the pucks soggy. If you choose canned, drain them thoroughly and pat dry before using. Fresh or frozen peaches are preferred for the best texture.

Are these peach crisp pucks gluten-free?

Yes! Just make sure to use gluten-free rolled oats if you have gluten sensitivity or prefer to avoid gluten entirely.

Can I make these pucks ahead of time and freeze them?

Absolutely! The recipe is designed to be freezer-friendly. Make the pucks, freeze them solid on a baking sheet, then store in a container or bag. Bake directly from frozen whenever you want a quick peach crisp treat.

What’s the best way to reheat these pucks?

The best way is to bake them in an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C) for 15-18 minutes. This method keeps the topping crisp and the peaches warm and tender.
