Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, combine the 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 1 cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Pour ½ cup unsalted butter, melted over the oat mixture. Stir with a fork until everything is evenly moistened and coarse crumbs form.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling around the edges and the topping is golden brown.

Serve warm, with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Ingredient Notes

Peaches: There's no need to peel fresh peaches unless you prefer them that way.
Frozen fruit: Frozen peaches and blueberries may be used. Add them frozen rather than thawing first and expect the crisp to need a little additional baking time.
Very juicy peaches: If your peaches are exceptionally ripe and juicy, you can increase the cornstarch to 3 tablespoons for a thicker filling.
Oats: Old-fashioned rolled oats provide the best texture. Quick-cooking oats will create a softer topping.

Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container for up to 4 days.

A 9x9-inch baking dish also works well. You can use a 9x13-inch pan, but the layers will be thinner and the crisp may bake more quickly.
