One of the best things about summer in the south: PEACHES!
The local, ripe ones are so delicious on their own, but make this simple peach crisp recipe to take them up to the next level.
Note: I’ve made this with a gluten-free baking blend and it worked very well (make sure you’re using a cup-for-cup blend, though).
Ingredients
- 4 cups pitted, peeled, and cubed peaches (this was about 8 peaches for me)
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- for the topping:
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the peaches, 2 tbsp flour, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Pour into a 8x8 baking dish.
- Make the topping. In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Add the butter pieces and cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter resembles a coarse meal (I usually use my hands to press the butter into the flour and sugar, but you can also use a pastry cutter).
- Add the topping to the top of the peach mixture (grab a handful of the topping mixture, squeeze, and then crumble evenly on top of the peaches).
- Bake for 45 minutes until bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
- Let cool until the dish is slightly warm (this will allow the filling to set).
- Serve with vanilla ice cream.
