Note from Heather – please give a warm welcome to the awesome ladies from over at Athletic Avocado! I love these girls’ great recipes – they’re all awesome healthy food with a twist! Some recipes that look especially amazing are these S’mores Protein Bars, Zucchini Brownies, and Cherry Pie Chia Pudding!
This Paleo Peach Crumb Coffee Cake makes it acceptable to eat cake for breakfast! So easy to make and made with REAL ingredients!
Hey guys! My name is Bethany, and I blog over at Athletic Avocado with my twin sister Rachel. We are super excited and blessed to be guest posting for Heather today! We look up to her and adore all of her delicious recipes!
We are both college athletes who have always been interested in nutrition. I’m majoring in nutrition while Rachel is majoring in OT, but we are both health and fitness freaks. Ever since the start of our gymnastics career at age 11, we have grown to love whole, natural foods instead of processed and artificial stuff. We realized how much more energized we were from eating a piece of fruit before a practice in place of a store-bought muffin. While we aren’t specifically paleo, we do love to make paleo recipes on our blog! You can check out our instagram, Facebook and Pinterest as well!
I am super excited to share this recipe with you today, mainly because it includes my favorite summer fruit! Ugh, there is nothing better than a ripe summer peach. You can argue with me on this one, but I’m right. 😉
Yeah, peaches are good by themselves, but even better in this crumb coffee cake. It tastes like peach crumble and coffee cake in one, hence the name. But of course, this coffee cake is free of gluten, dairy, grains and refined sugar. Perfect for breakfast with a cup of coffee, an afternoon pick-me-up snack and of course dessert!
Peach Coffee Crumb Cake
Fresh peaches combine with crumb coffee cake to create a sweet and filling breakfast that goes perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea! You won’t believe that it is gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free and paleo friendly!

This is beautiful Rachel and Bethany! I think I’m going to try it with pineapples? What do you think? (aka: I don’t have peaches right now. :'(
I love peaches, and everything in this recipe sounds delicious! The crumble looks so perfect on top!
Sounds delicious, ladies! This is my kind of cake!!
Gorgeous and must be really divine! Can I have a slice please? Great recipe! – Love, Anna
This looks awesome! Fresh peaches and coffee cake–how can you go wrong with that! 😀
I can never say no to a sweet peach. Great recipe ladies!
YEAA!!! Coffee cake is the best! Perfect summer twist!
I have a nut allergy. If I substitute Tigernut flower do you think it would be the same amount as almond?
Yes I believe so 🙂
This looks fantastic!! Sad that I just ran out of almond flour. I agree, there is nothing better than a fresh peach!
