Ingredients

Scale
  • 56 medium fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (60g)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/4 cup almond flour (25g) (optional)
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar (70g)
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (85g), cubed
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and let it heat up while you prepare the ingredients.
  2. Peel and slice 5-6 medium peaches into roughly 1/2-inch thick slices. Toss them gently in a large bowl with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside to macerate.
  3. In another bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup almond flour (optional), and 1/3 cup packed brown sugar. Add 6 tablespoons cold, cubed unsalted butter.
  4. Cut in the butter using a fork, pastry cutter, or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized bits.
  5. Transfer the peach mixture into your baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the peaches.
  6. Place the dish on a baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges.
  7. Let the crisp rest for about 10 minutes to thicken the juices.
  8. Spoon the warm peach crisp into bowls and add a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Notes

Use ripe peaches for best flavor. Keep butter cold for a crisp topping. If topping browns too fast, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. Add a splash of water or peach juice if peaches seem dry. For gluten-free, substitute flour and oats with certified gluten-free alternatives. Almond flour is optional and adds nuttiness.
