Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F.

    Step 2

    Grease an 8 by 8-inch or 11 by 7-inch baking dish.

    Step 3

    Combine the peaches and berries with the lemon juice and agave nectar, toss gently, then sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon and the cornstarch, stirring gently to combine. Transfer to the baking dish.

    Step 4

    Combine the flour mix, xanthan gum, salt, and brown sugar. Whisk together, then add the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and the oats. Toss well.

    Step 5

    Melt the shortening (30 to 60 seconds in the microwave does it) and add it to the dry ingredients, a little at a time, tossing between each addition. Mix until you have a large crumb. Spread the crumb topping evenly over the fruit.

    Step 6

    Bake in the center of the oven for about 40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling up around the sides. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
