What is the difference between peach crisps and peach cobblers
Peach crisp is also called peach crumble. It has a layer on the bottom of fruit slices and a crunchy topping made from butter, sugar, and sometimes oats and flour.
Fruit cobbler recipes do not call for a crumbly top but a thicker batter resembling scones, drop biscuits, or pie crust.
Easy peach crisp ingredients
You’ll need the following ingredients to make this recipe: peaches, rolled oatmeal, cinnamon powder, flour, sweetener, butter, or neutral oil.
There is a recipe for a low-carb peach crisp that uses almond flour.
You can also substitute the peaches for apples or pineapples. You can replace half the peaches with blueberries, sliced strawberries, or pineapple.
After cutting in the butter, add a few shredded coconut, pecans, or walnuts finely chopped, or even almonds.
This recipe does not contain cornstarch, unlike many others.
Can I use frozen or canned peaches

How to make the best Peach Crisp
Peel and slice the peaches if you are using them fresh. Discard the pits.
Preheat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit. In a large bowl, toss peaches in the cinnamon and sweetener.
Spread the mixture into a cast-iron pan or 8-inch baking dish.
Mix all ingredients, except butter or coconut oil, in a large bowl. With a pastry cutter or fork, cut in the butter. Continue to crumble the large pieces of topping until they are small.
Sprinkle the crispy topping over the peaches. Place the baking dish in the center of the oven.
Bake for 50 minutes until the caramelized peaches have a golden crispy topping.
Divide the dessert between individual bowls. Serve the dessert hot or cold and top it with ice cream or whipped cream, if you wish.

Storage Instructions

Leave a small hole in the container. This will stop excess moisture from getting stuck and softening your topping.
