Blueberry Peach Crisp
Description
The Blueberry Peach Crisp uses ripe peaches and blueberries tossed with lemon juice and zest to brighten the fruit flavors, along with cornstarch to thicken the fresh fruit juices during baking. The topping is a blend of oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and agave nectar combined with melted butter to form a coarse crumble. Baking at 375°F for about 40 minutes produces a golden crust with tender cooked fruit beneath.
This crisp is best served warm, where the topping remains slightly crisp and the fruit filling soft and luscious. Adding a scoop of ice cream or frozen yogurt complements the tart and sweet fruit notes.
For gluten-free adaptation, the whole wheat flour can be replaced with a gluten-free flour mix and ensure oats are certified gluten-free.
Ingredients
- 5 yellow peaches (pitted and sliced)
- 1 cup oats uncooked quick or rolled
- 1 cup blueberries (about 6 oz)
- 1/3 cup whole wheat flour (*)
- 1/2 lemon (zested and juiced)
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar (not packed)
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 3/4 tsp cinnamon
- 3 1/2 tablespoons agave nectar or honey
- 1/4 cup butter half stick, melted
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375F degrees.
- Combine peaches, blueberries, agave nectar, lemon juice and zest in large bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch. Toss until fruit is coated.
- Place fruit in an ungreased pie dish. Mix remaining ingredients. Sprinkle over fruit.
- Bake about 40 minutes or until topping is golden brown and fruit is tender.
- Serve with a scoop of ice cream or frozen yogurt, if desired.
Notes
- To make gluten-free, substitute whole wheat flour with a gluten-free flour blend and use gluten-free oats.
