Author Notes
The ultimate summer breakfast treat, this coffee cake is studded with fresh peaches and topped with an irresistible nutty, sugary, and crumbly topping. It’s perfect for a sweet morning, but it’s also pretty great for dessert (especially if you top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream). —Gena Hamshaw

Ingredients
- For the coffee cake:
1 cup
almond milk
1 teaspoon
apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup
organic sugar
1/3 cup
melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups
unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon
sea salt
1 cup
peeled, diced ripe peaches
- For the crumble topping:
3/4 cup
unbleached, all-purpose flour
1/3 cup
packed organic brown sugar
1/3 cup
chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon
ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon
salt
4 tablespoons
coconut oil (melted or solid—either will work)
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350° F. Lightly oil an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, vigorously whisk together the apple cider vinegar and the almond milk until the mixture is frothy. Allow it to sit for a few moments. Mix in the sugar, coconut oil, and vanilla.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until they’re just combined, adding a little more almond milk if necessary. Fold in the diced peaches and pour the batter into the baking dish.
- To make the crumble topping, place the flour, sugar, walnuts, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Work in the oil with your fingers, one tablespoon at a time. Continue working until large crumbs form (you may only need 4 tablespoons of oil, but it’s good to have 5 handy). If you like, you can also pulse the ingredients together in a food processor for this step.
- Distribute the crumble topping over the coffee cake. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is fragrant and toasty and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
