A delicious, seasonal crumble with tons of great flavor so you won’t even miss the traditional butter.
By Vicki Brett-Gach
When Michigan’s harvest at its peak, fresh blueberries and juicy peaches are everywhere you look. 
Luscious and comforting, fruit desserts are a timeless classic at family barbecues, tailgates, and potlucks, and equally at home on a holiday buffet table. Crisps and crumbles travel well, feed a crowd and, at least in this case, can be almost effortless.
Before I was vegan, I was a devoted fan of butter, and used it in most recipes for the streusel portion of crumbles and crisps. But for this recipe, I had to experiment without and still make something delicious.
You can slide the Blueberry and Peach Crumble into the oven just before dinner, to serve it steaming hot. Or prepare it at your leisure earlier in the day, and allow it to rest on a cooling rack until ready to serve.
Either way, it looks like you went to a fair amount of trouble. But it is deceptively simple. Two easy steps. Wash and prepare the fruit. Mix and crumble the topping over the fruit.
Then place the crumble into the oven, and bake until the fruit is bubbling, the top is golden, and your kitchen smells heavenly.
