We decided we could live off of this stuff if we had to. It's so easy, delicious, and cozy. Especially since it uses canned peaches, it comes together in 5 minutes, then bakes for 30 and you have a wonderful dessert to share. Of course, my Grandma canned her own peaches which would make this even more incredible! We ate it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was heavenly.
Toasty Peach Crisp
Serves 6
1 lb. 13 oz. sliced canned peaches, drained (3 1/2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/3 cup gluten free 1:1 flour
1 cup quick oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
Place peaches in an 8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top. In a bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, and melted butter. Sprinkle over peaches. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
Desserts that involve fruit are loved by all. We really loved the convenience of this recipe. You pour drained canned peaches into a baking dish, sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg (I used freshly grated and it makes such a difference), then combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle over the top. The ratio of topping to fruit is awesome. LOTS AND LOTS of topping, which is everyone's favorite part.
A cool side note..... it tastes amazing served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, but the way my Grandma's family ate it was with warmed evaporated milk poured on top. Once again, it was easy to store and cheaper. I tried it this way for breakfast this morning, and it was delicious. It made it like a bowl of peach oatmeal. Any way you serve it, you will love the warm crisp topping and be glad there is so much of it.
