15 Vegan Crumbles, Crisps and Cobblers

Crumbles, crisps, and cobblers are beautifully traditional dishes that many of us remember from our childhoods. Often made with the bounties of summer fruit harvests, these desserts celebrate the sweetness of summer with the comforting hug of crumbly pastry.

Such desserts can be a little easier to achieve than the more traditional sweet pies. These types of pies give all the pastry goodness without the headache of rolling it out and trying to line a pie dish with it!

If you are looking for a delicious, often simple, and always sweet dessert to impress your people with, then look at this list of OGP Crumble, crisp, and cobbler recipes.

This deconstructed Summer Pineapple Crumble by Andri Neocleous recipe makes a perfect summer dessert as it’s a lot lighter than the classic version.

This Almond Peach Crisp by Tara Weir is super easy to make and tastes as delicious as it looks! It’s also gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and paleo!

It’s all up to you! Whatever you choose, you have to try making this almond peach crisp. It will be a crowd-pleaser at any family holiday party!
