Ingredients
Scale
- 5–6 medium ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced (about 5 cups)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats (not instant)
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/3 cup (about 5 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel and slice 5-6 medium peaches into about 1/2-inch thick slices. Toss them gently with 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sliced peaches with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon flour. Stir gently to coat the peaches.
- Transfer the peach mixture to a 9-inch square baking dish and spread evenly in a single layer.
- In another bowl, stir together 1 cup rolled oats, 1/3 cup packed brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Pour 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter over the oat mixture and stir until the dry ingredients are evenly coated and clump together slightly.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the peach layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and crispy and the peach filling is bubbly.
- Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken.
Notes
If topping browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil halfway through baking. Use fresh, firm peaches for best texture. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. Let crisp cool before serving to prevent runny juices. For gluten-free, substitute flour with gluten-free blend and use certified gluten-free oats. For dairy-free, use coconut oil or vegan butter instead of butter.
