This Gluten-Free Vegan Pear Crumble showcases the natural sweetness of ripe pears combined with warm cinnamon, topped with a golden, lightly sweetened crumble. Made entirely from plant-based and gluten-free ingredients, it’s a simple dessert that highlights real, wholesome flavors.
Pears are rich in fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants, adding a nutritious touch to a classic treat. Arrowroot powder thickens the filling naturally, while coconut sugar gives a mild caramel sweetness. The gluten-free flour and vegan butter create a crisp, flavorful topping without dairy or wheat.
Serve warm from the oven or chilled — a naturally tasty way to enjoy fresh pears.
Recipe
How to Prepare
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, coconut sugar, ¼ tsp salt, cinnamon, and melted butter. Mix with a fork until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix the sugar and arrowroot. Add the chopped pears and toss until evenly coated.
Pour the pear mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread out evenly. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Let cool for at least 20 minutes to allow the filling to thicken. Serve warm or cold.
