Peach Crisp
Is there a more perfect, summer-y recipe than a classic Peach Crisp? Peaches are one of the best products of summer, and right now you can get fresh, ripe, juicy ones from just about any grocery store (not to mention the farmer’s markets and roadside produce stands are basically overflowing with them!). While they taste incredible right off the branch, in my opinion peaches are best when served in a classic peach crisp. While I have a well-loved apple crisp recipe, this peach version is my favorite version yet: a sweet bottom layer of juicy peaches and a buttery crisp topping. Top everything off with a scoop of vanilla extract and you have yourself one of the best desserts of summer.
How to Make Peach Crisp
Start by making your peach layer! Combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon, and salt and stir well. Pour peaches into a lightly buttered 8×8 baking dish. Make your crisp topping! Stir together flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon Use a pastry cutter to cut in 1 stick of cold unsalted butter until the mixture begins to clump together. Evenly sprinkle topping mixture over peach mixture. Bake until peaches are bubbly and topping is browned. Enjoy! For best results serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream!
What Is the Difference Between Peach Cobbler and Peach Crisp?
Cobblers and crisps are often confused, but they’re actually quite different! Cobblers are typically made with a sweetened biscuit-like topping (see my blueberry cobbler for an example) while crisps are made with a topping that is, well, crisper, and more like a streusel.
Do You Have to Peel Peaches for Peach Crisp?
Technically you do not need to peel your peaches when making peach crisp. However I’ve found that the skins get rather tough and unpleasant after baking, so for best taste and texture I do recommend peeling them first.
Can I Make Peach Crisp with Frozen Peaches?
Yes! Peach crisp can be made with frozen peaches. However I do recommend allowing them to thaw and draining the excess liquid before substituting them for the fresh peaches called for in this recipe. The easiest way I’ve found to do this is to simply place the frozen peach slices in a colander and leave it in the sink until thawed.
