This Peach Crisp recipe is a sweet and delicious dessert with tons of fresh peaches and a crisp oat topping. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it just tastes like summer!

Simple, warm desserts like this are a real favorite with our family. Be sure to try one of the other baked fruit desserts on the site, like Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp and Pineapple Cobbler.

The Best Peach Crisp Recipe

Peach Crisp is a summer staple! We love making this delicious dessert year round with frozen peaches, but fresh peaches just taste so much better. The crunchy oat topping adds a nice texture to the creamy peach filling.

My dad loved cobblers and crisps, They were always his favorite dessert. He could easily finish off a whole pan of this Peach Crisp by himself in a matter of days. I wish he was still with us because I know that he would absolutely love this recipe.

Everybody loves this amazing Peach Crisp recipe. It’s warm and inviting and makes your house smell amazing. It’s the perfect summer dessert that no one can resist!

HOW TO MAKE PEACH CRISP

Casserole types of desserts seem complicated but they are really so easy.

  1. The filling is comprised of fresh peaches, sugar, flour (to thicken), vanilla and lemon juice. I love adding lemon juice to fruit desserts because the acid is a lovely contrast to the super sweet filling. I do recommend fresh peaches if they are in season, but frozen peaches will work just fine.
  2. The oat topping is made with butter and rolled oats, flour and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg.
  3. The butter is softened and blended in with the oats and flour to form a crumbly mixture, then patted down onto the peach filling.
  4. Once baked the oat topping forms this crispy, crunchy layer over the creamy peach filling. It’s seriously amazing!

PRO TIP: Make sure to use OLD FASHIONED ROLLED OATS. (aff) The quick cook kind will just absorb the liquid and become soggy. The old fashioned kind will get nice and crunchy.

MAKE AHEAD TIP: You can make this Peach Crisp up to 3 months in advance and store in the freezer before baking. After step 3 in the recipe, cover the casserole dish tightly with foil or it’s lid and place in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then proceed with step 4. I don’t recommend refrigerating overnight though, as the topping would get soggy.

What is the difference between a cobbler and a crisp?

A cobbler is a baked fruit dessert that’s topped with a cake-like biscuit batter. A crisp is a layer of sweetened fruit that is covered with a buttery oat and/or nut topping. As it bakes, the topping gets crispy and crunchy, hence the name!

Serving Suggestions

Peach Crisp can definitely be enjoyed on it’s own either cold, warm or at room temperature. If you really want to indulge, try a scoop of ice cream or some fresh whipped cream on top!

What to do with leftovers

Store leftovers in the fridge in a tightly sealed container. Enjoy cold, or reheat in the microwave. Discard any leftovers after 3-4 days.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly grease an 8 or 9-inch baking dish (circle or square). Set aside.

      Yes you can, just be sure to drain them really well. It will probably be more runny than if you were using fresh.

    This came out great. Very tasty. I might cut back a little on the flour mixed in with the peaches next time but that is a minor thing. The topping was spot on – sweet and crispy

    I’m using fresh frozen peaches should I pre-cook them before adding the topping? Also my first attempt at this recipe my topping was not crunchy at all. Not sure what I did wrong. Brian sugar soft butter and old fashion oats. Did I use too much butter and not enough flour and sugar ? I used 1/2 cup each. Thanks

      Hi Tara, it sounds like maybe you didn’t follow the recipe for the topping if you only use 1/2 cup of each. There are different measurements in the recipe for the dry ingredients. Also yes you can use frozen peaches. Thaw them in advance but there’s no need to cook them.
