A quick and fuss-free peach crisp made on a sheet pan with a crunchy oat topping and juicy peaches, perfect for family dessert or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (90g)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (60g)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (110g)
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted (75g)
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel (if desired) and slice 6 medium peaches into roughly 1/2-inch thick slices. Toss them in a large bowl with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir gently until peaches are evenly coated. Set aside to macerate for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt. Pour in 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract if using. Stir with a spoon until the mixture is crumbly but holds together when pressed slightly.
  4. Lightly grease your sheet pan. Spread the peach mixture evenly across the pan. Then, sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the peaches, covering them fairly well but not pressing down.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Keep an eye on it after 30 minutes—look for bubbling fruit and a golden-brown, crispy topping. If the topping browns too fast, tent with foil for the last 10 minutes.
  6. Cool slightly before serving to allow the crisp to set.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Peeling peaches is optional. Spread peaches and topping evenly to avoid soggy or burnt spots. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly. Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 4 days and reheat in the oven to maintain crispness. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained well. For gluten-free, substitute flour with almond flour and use certified gluten-free oats. For vegan option, use coconut oil or vegan butter and coconut sugar.
