Fruit crisp is one of my favorite desserts because the oatmeal crumble on top adds a sweet crunch to each bite while allowing the fruit to remain the star of the dessert. I use whatever fruit is in season (apples, berries or peaches). This time I chose peaches for a grand finale of summer.
This crisp is easy to throw together at the last minute. Serve it warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream.

The oatmeal crumble on top of this peach crisp adds a sweet crunch to each bite while allowing the peaches to remain the star of the dessert.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 7-10 medium-sized peaches
Instructions
- Peel, pit and slice the peaches.
- Mix the rest of the ingredients.
- Place the cut fruit in a greased baking pan. The size pan I use depends on how much fruit I have. I like to make the crisp so that it is several fruit slices deep.
- Cover the fruit with the oat-butter mixture.
- Bake it for 40 minutes at 350 degrees or until it is browned, the fruit is cooked and the juices are starting to bubble.
