Cast Iron Peach Crisp
You guys loved my Grilled Peaches recipe, so I decided to follow up with another peach idea! After all, if there’s one time to go into “peach overload,” it’s now during the summer.
Here, I’ve made my Cast Iron Peach Crisp. Having sweet, bubbly peaches topped with a crunchy, sweet-salty crisp topping is a match made in heaven.
I made mine in a large cast iron for friends. But if you’re making this for yourself or you and a friend, you can scale down the recipe and serve it in individual cast irons or ramekins.
Makes one 10-inch skillet
Ingredients
For the topping
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/3 cup rolled oats, traditional
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 stick butter, cubed and chilled
For the fruit mix
- 6-8 peaches, peeled and cut into wedges
- 1 cup walnuts or pecans (I used pecans), roasted and chopped
- 2 tbsp butter, softened
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Juice and zest of 1 lemon
- Pinch of salt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and put your cast iron in to warm with the oven. This is an important step or else you’re essentially putting the crisp in a cold oven!
- For the topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Use your fingers to work and crumble the butter into the dry mix. The final product should have butter the size of blueberries.
- For the fruit mix: Put the peaches and pecans in another large bowl. Add the butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, zest, and salt to the fruit-nut mix and toss.
- Place the fruit mix in your hot cast iron and sprinkle the crisp topping on top.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Serve hot and enjoy with a scoop of ice cream!
