Peach crisp is a warm, juicy dessert with tender peaches topped by a crunchy, buttery crumb.
Cook Time 50 minutes mins
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- dash of sale
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, cold, diced into small chunks
- 3 1/2 lbs fresh peaches peeled, cored, and sliced 3/4 inch thick about 6-8 peached
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- dash of salt
- dash of cinnamon
Peel peaches (if desired) into 3/4 inch thick slices. Add the sliced peaches to a medium size bowl. Add 1/4 cup sugar and toss to coat. Allow peaches to sit for about 20 minutes, to allow the sugar to pull some of the juice out of them.
To make crumble topping, add all topping ingredients to a bowl. Use a pastry blender or fork to cut in butter until mixture resembles small crumbs. Refrigerate.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Grab the bowl of peaches and stir in flour, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon. Make sure peaches are coated in mixture. (I like to stir in a handful of blueberries to my filling.)
Pour peaches into a 8x8" or similar size dish. Sprinkle crumb topping evenly on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and top is set.
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
