Description

A buttery, golden-brown peach crisp featuring juicy caramelized peaches topped with a crunchy oat and pecan topping. Perfect for summer gatherings or cozy family dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. 2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Toss until the peaches are evenly coated, then transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  3. 3. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. 4. Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter pieces.
  5. 5. Stir in the chopped pecans if using.
  6. 6. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the peach filling, creating clusters for extra crispiness.
  7. 7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.
  8. 8. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  9. 9. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or enjoy as is.
