Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour, plus 2 tablespoons for tossing peaches
  • ½ cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • ⅓ cup unsalted butter (about 5 tablespoons), cold and cubed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel, pit, and slice 6 medium peaches into ½-inch thick slices. Toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons flour, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup rolled oats, ⅓ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Add ⅓ cup cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients.
  5. Cut the butter into the mixture using a pastry cutter, two knives, or fingertips until it resembles coarse crumbs with small pea-sized pieces of butter visible.
  6. Spread the peach mixture evenly in a 9×9-inch baking dish.
  7. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the peaches.
  8. Bake for 35–40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and crisp and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges.
  9. Let the crisp rest for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken.

Notes

Keep butter cold when making streusel to avoid greasy topping. Toss peaches with flour to prevent sogginess. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly. Let crisp rest 10 minutes before serving for best texture. Can substitute almond flour for gluten-free option and coconut sugar for less sweet topping. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained.
