Awesome Peach Crisp
This buttery peach crisp combines sweet and juicy peaches with brown sugar cinnamon oat streusel. Toasty pecans add a little crunch while vanilla ice cream adds a lovely contrast to the warm peach filling.
Equipment
- 9×9 inch baking dish
Ingredients
FILLING
- 5 cups 2–2.5 lbs. sliced peaches (peeled or unpeeled) 8 to 10 peaches
- 2 Tablespoons corn starch
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
TOPPING
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, very cold and cubed
- 2/3 cup old-fashioned whole rolled oats (or quick oats)
- 2/3 cup chopped or halved unsalted pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly grease a deep-dish 9-inch pie dish, 9-inch square pan, 10-inch cast iron skillet, or any 2–2.5-quart baking dish. Set aside.
- Gently mix all of the filling ingredients together in a large bowl, then spread into the baking dish.
- Make the topping: Whisk the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or forks until the mixture is crumbly. Fold in the oats and pecans. Sprinkle evenly over filling.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges. Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack, and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving warm. You can also serve room temperature or cold.
