Ingredients
 
 

Peaches

  • 1.2 kg ripe peaches
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Crisp topping

  • 100 g soft brown sugar
  • 95 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 113 g butter cold, cubed
  • 70 g walnuts chopped
  • 45 g rolled oats

Instructions
 

  • Slice the peaches into ½ an inch (1.3cm) slices and add them to a large bowl. Pour over the granulated sugar and toss to coat. Let the peaches sit in the sugar at room temperature for around 30-40 minutes to get nice and juicy. 1.2 kg ripe peaches, 50 g granulated sugar
  • When the peaches have sat, drain them and reserve some of the juice. You'll need to reserve around ¼ cup of juice. If there is more than that, discard it (or use it in a cocktail perhaps)
  • Add the peaches back to a bowl and pour over the reserved juice, flour, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and vanilla, Toss it all together. 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 Tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 1 teaspoon vanilla paste , 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • While the peaches are sitting, make the crisp topping. In a bowl, whisk the brown sugar, flour, spices, and salt together. Add in the cold butter cubes and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub it in until you achieve pea-sized pieces. There will be a few dry bits, but that's fine. You can also use a food processor for this. 100 g soft brown sugar, 95 g all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Stir the walnuts and oats into the butter-flour mixture. Set it aside in the refrigerator. 70 g walnuts, 45 g rolled oats
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F(180°C).
  • Layer the peaches into a baking dish. Crumble over the topping, so that all the peaches are covered.
  • Bake for around 45 minutes until the top is a deep golden brown and the peach juice is bubbling at the edges.
  • Let it cool for around 15 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken up. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Peach crisp is great served warm, at room temperature, or cold.
