We Love Peach Crisp!

This easy peach crisp recipe is the perfect peach dessert.

We love it for so many reasons, including:

• SIMPLICITY. Takes some time, but directions are easy to follow and it’s practically fool-proof.
• FOR PEACH LOVERS. It’s perfectly peach and great to make during peach season.
• THE CRUMBLE. The delicious brown sugar cinnamon crumble on top is to die for and ties in perfectly with the peach flavor.
• STORES + FREEZE. Easy to store, easy to freeze.

Crisps (and crumbles) really are quite easy. You can easily throw together a fruit crisp, use whatever fruit is in season, and it’s always a crowd-pleaser.

How to Make Peach Crisp

This peach crisp is full of fresh peach flavor and a deliciously crispy topping.

1. PREP. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 3-quart ceramic baking dish (I used a 9×13 inch pan). Do not use a metal pan.
2. PREP THE PEACHES. Prepare a large bowl of ice water, adding water and ice cubes. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the peaches to the boiling water for about 2 minutes, then use a slotted spoon to transfer them to the bowl of ice water for about 1 minute. Remove the peaches from the cold water – peel, core, and slice. The peel should slide off after blanching.
3. PEACH LAYER. Toss the sliced peaches with the sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Pour/spoon the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
4. MAKE THE CRUMBLE. In a large bowl toss together the flour, oats, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or 2 forks, cut in the cold, chopped butter. Gently stir in the egg yolk. If you squeeze the crumble in your palms, it should form clumps. Crumble over top of the peaches. 
5. BAKE + COOL. Bake the crumble in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. If around 30 minutes you notice the top getting too brown, tent a piece of aluminum foil over top. 

Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve this crisp with Vanilla Ice Cream, Whipped Cream, or even a drizzle of Caramel Sauce.

Use canned or frozen peaches

If you don’t have fresh peaches, you can use canned or frozen in this easy peach crisp.

Canned peaches. Drain the peaches first and discard the liquid. Toss the sliced peaches with brown sugar, spices, and cornstarch and prepare the same as using fresh peaches.

Frozen peaches. Thaw the peaches first and drain all the extra liquid. I also recommend adding 1 extra tablespoon of cornstarch if using frozen peaches.

Storing Info

STORE. Allow the easy peach crisp recipe to cool, cover, and place the crisp in the fridge. Cooked fruit desserts usually last just 2-3 days.

FREEZE. Allow the peach crisp to cool, wrap the pan in plastic wrap, and then wrap it in foil to keep moisture out. Place in the freezer for up to 1 month. Leftovers can be divided into airtight containers and stored in the same manner.
