Put the spelt berries into your blender or food processor, and run it for a few seconds to break it down. Some of the spelt will break down into flour, and you'll end up with a slightly chunky mixture.
In a small pan on medium heat, melt the vegan butter. Add the blended spelt and cook, stirring, for just a few minutes until it starts to smell nice and toasty.
Add the water, bring to a boil, and reduce the heat to low. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, add the peaches, maple syrup, vanilla, ginger, salt, and cinnamon to a bowl. Toss well and set aside while the spelt cooks.
Add the non-dairy milk and the peach mixture to the pan. Increase the heat to medium and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, uncovered, until the spelt reaches a porridge-like consistency. You can add more splashes of non-dairy milk, if it's getting too thick. It depends on how juicy your peaches are and how thick you want the porridge to be. Taste and sweeten more, if needed.
Serve topped with a drizzle of vegan cream, chopped pecans and peaches, and more maple syrup or brown sugar, to taste.
