7 Vegan Crumble Desserts With Irresistible Crunchy Toppings

Warm and comforting, crumble desserts bring together soft, juicy fruit and a crisp, golden topping. These vegan crumble desserts offer that same contrast of textures, with crumbly layers adding sweetness, crunch, and richness without overpowering the filling underneath. A good crumble can make a simple bake a bit more special, whether it sits over fruit, sponge, pastry, or a traybake.

Crumble toppings can take many forms. Some use oats for extra texture, while others rely on flour, nuts, sugar, and plant-based butter for a more traditional finish. Spices, citrus zest, and different fruits can also change the flavor depending on the season or the style of dessert.

The recipes in this list go beyond the standard fruit crumble. They use crumbly toppings in several different ways, from familiar baked desserts to slices, squares, pies, and cakes. Serve them warm or at room temperature, and add vegan custard, cream, or ice cream for an extra indulgent finish.
