Peach Crisp is one of my favorite summer desserts. I know I’m a little early talking about summer, but I am ready for some warm sunshine, lots of swimming, and peach crisp for dessert!

This starts with a bottom layer of flaky, buttery pastry you bake first. Then you top it with warm and sweet peach filling. Yum. Top it with a crumbly oatmeal streusel topping and it is all a match made right in heaven!

When it’s summertime, and peaches are in season, I like to use fresh ones. During the fall months I use canned peaches, and it still tastes incredible!

One of my favorite ways to enjoy any crisp is with a giant scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. It’s seriously amazing and just finishes off this delicious dessert to perfection! 🙂
