Peach Crisp
Peach Crisp combines tender sliced peaches with a mixture of flour, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla to form the juicy filling beneath a crumbly, golden oat and almond topping. The crisp baked until bubbly offers a balance of sweet fruit and crunchy texture with notes of cinnamon. It can be served warm, optionally topped with ice cream, making it a satisfying dessert using seasonal peaches.
Ingredients
- For the filling:
- 6 cups peach about 6 large peaches, sliced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the topping:
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter cut into pieces, chilled, unsalted
- 1 cup almonds chopped
- Ice cream optional, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches with the flour, sugar, corn starch, and vanilla. Gently stir and pour into prepared dish.
- In a separate large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until well combined and the brown sugar clumps are broken down. Add the butter pieces and mix in with your hands until you have a crumbly mixture. Stir in the chopped almonds. Evenly sprinkle the crisp topping over peaches.

- The crisp is best eaten the day it is made to maintain topping texture, but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
- Reheat the crisp before serving to refresh the topping and warm the fruit filling.
