Ingredients
Filling
- 3 cups fresh blueberries
- 4 cups frozen peaches (32 ounces), thawed and drained
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Crisp Topping
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3/4 cup butter (cold and sliced)
Instructions
- Prepare Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of fresh blueberries, 4 cups thawed and drained frozen peaches, 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir well until the fruit is fully coated with the mixture. Set aside and stir again after 5 minutes to ensure even distribution.
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Assemble Filling: Pour the prepared fruit filling evenly into the greased baking dish.
- Make Crisp Topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup old fashioned oats, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 3/4 cup light brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Incorporate Butter: Add the cold, sliced 3/4 cup butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Top Filling: Evenly spread the crisp topping over the fruit filling in the baking dish.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Make sure to thaw and drain the frozen peaches well to avoid excess moisture in the filling.
- For an extra crunchy topping, you can add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the crisp mixture.
- This crisp can be stored covered at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days.
- Reheat leftovers in the oven to restore crispiness.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend and ensure oats are certified gluten-free.
