4 ripe peaches, sliced 1/4 inch thick

2 tsp maple syrup (optional, if your peaches aren't as sweet as you'd like)

1 vanilla bean

2 tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice

1 ½ cups raw pecans

½ cup Medjool dates, pitted and chopped

Dash of cinnamon

Pinch of sea salt

Vegan vanilla ice cream, optional

In a large bowl stir together the maple syrup and orange juice. Scrape half the seeds from the vanilla bean into the bowl. Add the sliced peaches and toss well to coat.

In a food processor, pulse pecans, dates, the seeds from the other half of the vanilla bean, cinnamon, and salt until a hearty, nut crumble is left. Add this crumble to the sliced peaches, toss lightly, then spoon into a pie dish to serve. Top with vegan vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
