Ingredients to make Peach Crisp

Let’s start by gathering the ingredients we need to make my old-fashioned peach crisp recipe. In Chef Speak, this is called the “Mise en Place,” which translates to “Everything in its Place.”

Not only does setting up your ingredients ahead of time speed up the cooking process, it also helps ensure you have everything you need to make the dish.

How to make Peach Crisp

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

• Add the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter to a large bowl.
• Mix the ingredients together until it forms a wet, clumpy mixture.
• Add the oats to the mixture.
• Combine using your hands or a large spoon to make the crisp topping.

*Butter an 8×8 baking pan and set aside until needed.

• Add the peaches, granulated sugar, flour, cornstarch, and salt to a large bowl.
• Mix to combine the dry ingredients with the peaches.
• Add the peach mixture to the prepared baking pan.
• Sprinkle the crumbly topping mixture over the top of the peaches in an even layer. Don’t pack the topping down. Leave it loose and crumbly.

Place the baking dish on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 20 – 25 minutes, until the oats start to get golden brown.

Remove the peach crisp from the oven and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before serving.

For an extra special treat, serve my homemade peach crisp with a scoop of ice cream. It’s guaranteed to bring smiles to your table, and some might even say this is the best peach crisp they’ve ever had.

Save any leftover peach crisp, refrigerated in an airtight container or well covered with plastic wrap for 3-4 days.
