One of the biggest reasons the summertime is perfect for foodies and dessert fans is that some of the tastiest fruits are back in season. All sorts of berries- perfect for all sorts of baked desserts-, watermelons, and plenty of sweet, tasty peaches too! We stopped into the grocery recently and picked up plenty of peaches for snacking and recipes. It was a good batch too: so sweet you could eat them right there- but I thought they’d taste even better in a delicious homemade Peach Crisp!

Peach Crisp Ingredients

  • Flour
  • Brown Sugar
  • Old-Fashioned Quick Oats – Uncooked old fashioned quick oats will work best for this recipe.
  • Cinnamon
  • Butter
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Peaches – We need peeled peaches for this recipe and we recommend blanching them instead of using a vegetable peeler. Blanching peaches is going to save much more of the flesh of the fruit. For a quick guide on how to blanch peaches, check out this article from MasterClass.
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Cornstarch
This Peach Crisp Recipe tastes great topped with a healthy scoop of vanilla ice cream, so don’t forget that either!

How to make Peach Crisp with Fresh Peaches

Crisps are such easy desserts to make, and our Fresh Peach Crisp isn’t any different! To make some yourself, here’s what you’ll do:
  1. Mix together flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon before adding vanilla and butter. Using something like a pastry blender or fork, work together until large crumbs form.
  2. Blanch and peel peaches before cutting into small slices. Toss with granulated sugar and cornstarch to coat before setting in baking dish.
  3. Cover coated peaches with crisp topping and bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until topping is browned and peaches are soft.

Crisp topping in a bowl

We’ll start with the topping. In a bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon. Once mixed, add in the vanilla extract and the butter- cut into pats. Use a pastry blender to work into large crumbs and set aside.

Cutting in crisp ingredients

Next, our peaches. First, score the peaches with a large X pattern.

Scoring peaches

Carefully transfer the peaches to boiling water and let boil for 10-20 seconds. After that, transfer to an ice bath and let cool before peeling.

Blanched peaches

Once peeled, cut the peaches into smaller slices and set in a baking dish. Pour granulated sugar evenly over peach slices and toss to coat.

Adding sugar to fresh peaches

Do this with the cornstarch as well.
