The Best peach and apple crisp recipe

I’m so excited to share with you my favorite peach and apple crisp recipe, a classic dessert that never fails to impress. I first discovered this recipe on a trip to the southern United States, where it’s a staple at family gatherings and community events.

The combination of tender fruit, crunchy oat topping, and hint of cinnamon is simply irresistible. As a busy mom, I appreciate that this recipe is easy to make in large batches and can be stored for up to three days in an airtight container.

My kids love helping me mix the filling and sprinkle the topping – it’s a fun and educational experience for them. And when we serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it’s the perfect treat after a long day.

Plus, with only 5g of added sugar per serving, I feel good about serving it to my family as an occasional dessert option. The key to this recipe is using fresh fruit – don’t skip this step!

– and making sure the oat topping is evenly distributed over the fruit mixture. I like to use a combination of peaches and apples for the best flavor balance, but you can experiment with other fruits like pears or berries if you prefer.

This recipe makes 8-10 servings, perfect for a small gathering or potluck event.

🥘Ingredients

For the Filling

4 medium peaches, peeled and sliced
2 medium apples, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg

For the Topping

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1/4 tsp salt

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat your oven to 375°F.
2In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches and apples.
3Add the sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then stir until the fruit is evenly coated.
4Transfer the fruit mixture to an 8×8-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
5In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans, and salt for the topping.
6Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients.
7Use your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
8Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit in the baking dish.
9Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
10Bake for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbly around the edges.
11Remove the crisp from the oven.
12Allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
13This allows the filling to set slightly, making it easier to serve.
