Peach crisp

A peach crisp is a type of fruit crumble that typically consists of fresh peaches, sugar, butter, flour, and spices. The dish can be served as a dessert or a breakfast treat.

Peach crisp recipes have been around for centuries. The dish is believed to have originated in Europe, where peaches were first cultivated. Early versions of the recipe likely called for dried or canned peaches, as fresh peaches were not always available.

As Peach Crisp recipes migrated to America, fresh peaches became the norm. In the early 1800s, women’s magazines and cookbooks began featuring the dish. It quickly became a popular summertime dessert.

Advice

When making a peach crisp, it is important to choose ripe and sweet peaches for the best flavor. Prepare the peaches by peeling, slicing, and tossing with sugar and a bit of cornstarch to thicken. Be sure to use a generous amount of butter and oats for the crisp topping. Place the prepared fruit in a baking dish and top with the oat mixture. Bake at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes or until the top is golden and the fruit is bubbly. For an extra sweet treat, try topping the crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream while it is still warm.
