Equipment
- 1 9x13-inch baking dish greased
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
- 1 Oven preheated to 350°F
Ingredients
Peach Filling
- 6 cups frozen peaches
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Crisp Topping
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen peaches, brown sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Toss well to coat the peaches evenly.
- Spread the peach mixture evenly in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, ensuring the peaches are distributed uniformly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the peaches, covering them completely to form the crisp topping.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
- Allow the peach crisp to cool slightly before serving to let the flavors meld and the filling set.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
- Cool the crisp completely before covering with plastic wrap or transferring to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 30-45 seconds, or warm the entire dish in the oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.
