Since I had quite a lot of blueberries on hand from my blueberry picking trip with my mama, I decided to make a blueberry crisp! I also had a few peaches on hand that needed to be eaten, so I threw those in too.
The result is a sweet, tart, and gooey fruit filling, with a deliciously crisp and buttery topping. Yum!
Blueberry Peach Crisp:
Ingredients:
For Filling:
- 3 ripe peaches, pitted and roughly chopped
- 5 cups blueberries
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- Juice of one lemon
- Pinch of salt
For Topping:
- 3/4 cup flour (I used Manini's gluten free)
- 3/4 cup rolled oats (I used Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup (one stick) butter, melted (you could use vegan butter instead to make the recipe vegan)
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and grab a 9"x13" pan. If you don't have that size, close enough will do!
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients for the filling.
3. Use a slotted spoon (or your hands, which is what I would have done if I weren't taking pictures!) to gently mix the ingredients until well combined.
4. Pour the filling into your pan, and spread it out evenly.
5. In another large mixing bowl (or the same one!), combine all the topping ingredients except for the butter, and stir to combine.
6. Pour the butter over the top of the topping mixture and mix it with a fork until it forms nice crumbles!
7. Crumble the topping over the filling, being sure to distribute it evenly, and then put your crisp in the oven!
8. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden and, well, crisp.
I hope you guys get a chance to bake up a fruit crisp soon! It's the perfect summer comfort food, and just delicious as can be.
Til next time!

Oh my goodness this looks so tasty! I love that you used fresh blueberries vs frozen. I will have to try this out. xx. McKenna Lou
ReplyDeleteThanks, McKenna Lou! I've actually never tried making a crisp with frozen fruit, but that makes so much sense for the winter months!
Deletesuch a good idea! having this with ice cream (my all time fav food) sounds like the best summer treat.
ReplyDeleteMan, ice cream is a good favorite food to have. It's a pretty great combo for the summer!
DeleteThis is wonderfully inspirational for my current kitchen contents!
ReplyDeleteI've been buying peaches in excess and need to use a few before they go bad - I'll be giving this a shot tonight!

DeleteThis looks amazing! Love that it can be made vegan too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jenn! I have a lot of friends with various food allergies and preferences, so I like to try to make things that can accommodate lots of different dietary needs.

Of course! It's SO easy. If you're not comfortable baking, this would be a great place to start.
DeleteHmm. Yeah, I need this. Or um... the baby needs it? Haha! That's my best line now.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had fruit crisp in way too long, and we just picked some blueberries (not enough to make jam, because I am SO not a patient blueberry picker! Haha! Like five minutes into picking, I was all "I'm tired. I'm hot. This takes too long. Can we go eat now? I have to pee!" like a five year old. My husband just shook his head at me.) that I want to use for something!
By the way, do you use any gluten free cookbooks or websites for recipes? My mom is allergic to gluten, and has been looking for some good sources. And since you seem to post lots of gluten-free recipes, I thought I'd ask!

Hahaha, the baby totally needs it! I'm totally hooked on berry picking. I want to do more!
DeleteYa know, unfortunately, I don't really have any favorite gluten free specific ources for recipes. I've been eating gluten free for about four and a half years, and over time, I've gotten away from specific gluten free recipes, and have just started to adapt recipes and make substitutions, use recipes that are naturally gluten free (which there are a ton of), or make stuff up.
I picked up a copy of Artisanal Gluten-Free Cooking a few months ago, and it looks great, but I haven't tried much out yet. I also really love Indian and Mexican food, both of which are largely gluten free to begin with, so those can be good sorts of cookbooks to pick up!
How long has your mom been gluten free?
Yummy!! Your recipes always make me drool.

Isn't that the worst? I made cupcakes a few months back, but my house was WAY too hot, so I went over to my parents' house to do my baking!
