Ingredients
32ouncesfrozen peaches, thawed with juice
1cupgranulated sugar
4tablespoonsall-purpose flour
Topping
¾cupall-purpose flour
½cupdark brown sugar,tightly packed
½teaspoonground cinnamon
½cupcold cubed salted sweet cream butter
¾cupold-fashioned rolled oats
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
Add the thawed frozen peaches and juice to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Pour the granulated sugar and 4 tablespoons of flour over the peaches. Stir to thoroughly coat the peaches. Continue to stir until no flour clumps remain. Pour the peaches into the prepared baking dish.
You can use a pastry blender/cutter, a food processor, or your hands to blend the flour, dark brown sugar, cinnamon, and cold cubed butter. If you are using a pastry cutter or your hands, add the ingredients to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Work the butter cubes into the flour mixture. Be careful not to over-blend. You want the mixture to be coarse crumbs. If you are using a food processor, pulse just until the mixture is coarse crumbs.
Stir in the oats and evenly spread the topping over the peaches. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until the topping is golden brown. Serve while still warm.
Notes
You can throw together the topping the night before and store it in the fridge until you are ready to assemble this fruit crisp.
To make sure this turns out crisp, take the oat mixture, press it into balls, and break off pieces to sprinkle on top. This allows the best air circulation during baking and turns the topping into crispy pieces that resemble nuggets of oatmeal cookies.
Oven temperatures vary and may need to be recalibrated periodically to ensure they are accurate. Make sure to check your crisp at the lower end of the recommended baking time.
