This is super yummy!  Very good with ice cream.  We had it with our home teacher (Bro. DeLeon) he liked it too. Kids had fun helping me make it.  Smelled so good while baking.

Juicy peaches and toasted streusel come together to make one simple summery fruit crisp!

Ingredients:

FILLING

• 5 cups thinly sliced peaches (about 5-6 medium peaches)1
• 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

TOPPING

• 3/4 cup (150g) light or dark brown sugar
• 2/3 cup (85g) all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup (65g) old-fashioned rolled oats (or quick oats)
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup (95g) unsalted pecans, such as Diamond of California (chopped or halved)
• 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• optional but encouraged: vanilla ice cream for serving

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly grease an 8 or 9-inch baking dish (circle or square). Set aside.
2. Make the filling: Combine peaches with the flour, sugar, salt, and vanilla in a large bowl. Toss gently until combine. Spoon into prepared baking dish.
3. Make the topping: Whisk the brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and pecans together. Make sure to get out all those brown sugar lumps. Add the butter and stir with a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon to break up the butter until the mixture is crumbly. (A fork works for this too!) Evenly sprinkle topping over peaches.
4. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the peach juice is bubbling on the edges. Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack, and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, room temperature, or cold. Cover leftovers and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
5. Make ahead tip: Baked crisp freezes well for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then warm in a 350°F (177°C) for 20 minutes or until heated through. I do not suggest preparing the crisp and storing it, unbaked, in the refrigerator. The topping will get soggy. You can, however, prepare the crisp through step 3 and freeze for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then continue with step 4.
