Peach Crisp with Canned Peaches

Nothing says summer quite like a warm, fruity peach crisp. This recipe uses canned peaches, making it a breeze to whip up on a weeknight or for a last-minute dessert.

Fruit based desserts are delicious and easy to make. This one is made from scratch and takes just a few more ingredients and a bit of time more than using a cake box recipe. It's usually the lack of ingredients that turn to to a tried and true cake mix recipe like this quick blueberry dump cake or this delicious strawberry upside down cake.

Ingredients

• Peaches: Two 14.5-ounce cans of sliced peaches, drained (reserve a little juice for the topping if desired)
• Oat Topping:
  • ⅔ cup old-fashioned oats (rolled oats)
  • ⅔ cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt (or any other large-grained salt)
  • ½ cup cold butter, cut into cubes

Assembling and Baking the Crisp

Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Step 1
Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with a nonstick spray.

Step 2
Evenly distribute the drained peaches in the prepared baking dish. If some of the slices are thick, I usually just cut them in half, lengthwise.

Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Using a pastry cutter, a fork, or even your clean fingertips, work the cold butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4
Crumble the oat topping evenly over the peaches.

Step 5
Bake the peach crisp for 25-30 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Serving Suggestions

• Let the crisp cool slightly before serving.
• Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra delicious treat.

Tips and Variations

• Don't have old-fashioned oats? You can substitute quick oats, but the texture of the topping may be slightly different. It'll still be good!
• For a nuttiness boost, add chopped pecans or walnuts to the oat topping.
• Feeling adventurous? Spice things up with a pinch of ground ginger or nutmeg in the topping.
