  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 9 servings

Ingredients

Topping

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup flour
  • 1/3 cup salted butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Fruit Filling

  • 2 1/2 cups peaches, peeled and sliced (about 3 peaches)
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries

Syrup

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the topping mixture. In a bowl, combine the old fashioned oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and melted salted butter. Mix just until the mixture becomes crumbly and holds together slightly.
  2. Layer the crisp. Spread half of the crumbly topping evenly into the bottom of a greased 9×9 inch baking pan to create the crust layer.
  3. Add the fruit. Place the peeled and sliced peaches along with the sliced strawberries evenly over the crust layer in the pan.
  4. Make the syrup. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, and water. Stir constantly and cook just until the mixture thickens, which will take only a few minutes. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
  5. Add vanilla and pour syrup. Remove the syrup from heat and stir in the vanilla bean paste. Pour this warm syrup evenly over the fruit in the baking pan.
  6. Top with remaining crumble. Sprinkle the remaining half of the topping mixture evenly over the syrup-covered fruit.
  7. Bake the crisp. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 35 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly.
  8. Optional broil for crispness. For an extra crunchy top, switch the oven to broil and place the crisp on the top rack. Broil for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Notes

  • Peeling peaches is recommended for a smoother texture, but unpeeled peaches can be used if preferred.
  • Keep a close watch while cooking the syrup to avoid it thickening too much or burning.
  • The broil step is optional but enhances the crispness of the topping.
  • Use fresh strawberries and peaches for the best flavor, but frozen can be substituted if fresh is not available.
  • Let the crisp cool slightly before serving to allow the syrup to thicken.
