I enjoy baking with fruits when they are in season.  This peach crisp is sweet, warm and the perfect dessert.  If you’re not a fan of peaches, you can use the same recipes with blueberries, apples, or pears.

Ingredients:

For the crumb topping:

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, cold & diced

For the peach filling:

  • 6-8 fresh peaches, cored and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (you can use coconut sugar as a substitute, but granulated sugar absorbs the peaches better)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of cinnamon

Directions:

Peel the peaches and cut them into thick slices.  Add peaches to a medium size bowl, with sugar and stir to coat. Set aside.

Start making the crumble.  In a bowl, add all the topping ingredients.  Use a fork to cut in the butter until the mixture starts to look like small crumbs.

Preheat 375 degrees.

Pour peaches into an 8 x 8 pan and add oat topping evenly over the peaches.  Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.  Remove from oven and cool before serving.
