Fruit Crisps are one of the best ways to enjoy fresh summer produce! This Blueberry Peach Crisp is loaded with sweet blueberries and juicy peaches, then, topped with a buttery, crunchy, golden crisp. YUM! My mouth is watering!

When I was growing up, most of our baked goods came from the store or a box.

Now, there’s no shame in that– but, as an adult, I developed a passion for eating real food and making things from scratch.

Food always tastes better from scratch!

I originally started making this as a plain blueberry crisp recipe. One day, as I was realizing how much I like peaches and blueberries together, I decided to add them both in.

It can be made either way, and there are even more ways to change it up, which I’ll get to in a bit.

Fruit crisps are incredibly easy to make. If you don’t enjoy making pie crusts or are intimidated by them, then crisps are a fabulous option.

Thanks to a couple of fantastic short cuts, you’ll only need about 10-15 minutes of hands-on time. 

Before we get to that, let me explain the difference between a crisp, crumble, cobbler, and buckle. 

The difference between Crisps, Crumbles, Cobblers, and Buckles

CRUMBLE- A baked fruit dish with a streusel topping made out of butter, flour, and sugar and sometimes includes nuts. 

CRISP- Very similar to a crumble, the crisp is also a baked fruit dish that has a streusel topping, but it’s a little lighter in texture and usually includes oats.

COBBLER- A batter or biscuit dough is dropped in dollops over the fruit. Almost like a pie reversed, no crust on the bottom, but one on the top. And it’s not a rolled out even crust. 

BUCKLE- A type of a cake that’s made in a single layer with fruit added to the batter (usually blueberries). The topping is similar to a streusel and when it bakes it “buckles” or crumbles.

How to make Blueberry Peach Crisp

INGREDIENTS:

ingredients for blueberry peach crisp
  • Sugar– you have some flexibility in how much you use, if you like sweeter, use more. 
  • Flour– you’ll need it for both the filling and the topping. I like to use unbleached all-purpose flour. 
  • Butter– I use unsalted. Slice it into tablespoons (markings on the package) and then cut into smaller ‘cubes’. 
  • Oats– use old fashioned rolled oats. Instant oats don’t work well. (Since we have oats in this, I think it’s officially healthy. Haha!!)

STEP ONE: Make The Filling

  • Slice the peaches- (shortcut # 1- no need to take the skins off!)
  • Scatter the sliced peaches in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish
  • Add the blueberries to the dish
  • Sprinkle sugar on top of the fruit
  • Sprinkle 6 Tablespoons of the flour on top 
  • Gently stir everything together, level out the fruit, and set aside

STEP TWO: Make The Streusel Topping

  • Put the butter, brown sugar, 1 1/2 cups of flour, and rolled oats into a mixing bowl.
  • shortcut #2- use a stand mixer to combine. If you don’t have one, no worries, use a pastry blender, or your hands to mix it well.

STEP THREE: Assemble & Bake

  • Sprinkle the streusel topping all over the fruit in an even layer. It will be completely covered.
  • Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, the fruit will be bubbling on the sides and the top will be golden brown.
  • Let stand for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  •  Don’t waste your time peeling peaches! It is NOT necessary. No one will notice, they blend right in.
  • You have some flexibility with the white sugar. I like 1/4-1/2 cup if I’m using fresh, in-season, fruit. Or, if I obtained that fruit during its peak season and then froze it. If not, I might use up to 3/4 cup sugar to help sweeten it up. All depends on YOUR taste.
  • You can use frozen fruit instead of fresh. Don’t thaw it. Give it a few extra minutes of bake time.
  • It might seem like you have too much topping, but it’s the perfect amount. It should be covered well.

This easy peach crisp recipe makes a 9×13 pan full of deliciousness, but if that’s too much it can easily be cut in half and done in an 8×8 inch pan.

Serving options

Ummm, with a spoon? 😄 Seriously though, it doesn’t need a single thing, it’s completely delicious as is. But here are some options:

  • warm (my fave), room temperature, or cold
  • with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (the best)
  • whipped cream
  • vanilla yogurt (if you’re in a ‘lighter version’ mood, or you want to justify eating it for breakfast).

Storing

If you’re going to eat this within a few days, covered, on the countertop is just fine. If it will take you longer, store it in the fridge for up to a week.

Variations and Fruit Combinations

You can add Pecans or Walnuts to the topping if you’d like. The fruit you can use here is endless! Here are a few suggestions:

  • nectarines
  • plums
  • strawberries
  • raspberries
  • Cherries
  • blackberries
  • huckleberries
  • apples (needs a bit longer baking time)

Fruit combinations-

  • Strawberry & rhubarb
  • Strawberry, blueberry, & raspberry
  • Strawberry & peach
  • raspberry & peach
  • raspberry & plum
  • cherry & blueberry
  • plum & peach
Can you use canned peaches?

Yes, I recommend you use the ones that are in 100% juice. Drain all the liquid, and then transfer to the dish and continue on.

How do you keep the ‘crisp’ from getting soggy?

Make sure it is completely cooled before you cover it to store it.

Can you reheat the blueberry crisp?

You sure can! Heat the oven to 300°. Place the crisp, uncovered, in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until the fruit starts bubbling. If it appears to be getting to brown on top, lightly cover it with foil, allowing plenty of air to get in.

    Hey, great base recipe! I made a couple little tweaks I’ll share because my hubs and I loved the result. I added about 10 minced leaves of fresh basil in with the fruit, upped the oatmeal to a cup and a half, and put some fresh cracked black pepper, fresh grated nutmeg and a few dashes of Saigon cinnamon in with the crisp. Incredible.
