Butter: You’ll need a stick of butter, cut into small cubes.Salt: Just a pinch or two so the dessert isn’t bland.Cinnamon and Nutmeg: Adding these warm spices to the topping brings out so much flavor, both in the topping ingredients, and the fruit.Brown Sugar and Granulated Sugar: You can just use just granulated sugar, but adding brown sugar adds a deep, caramel-y note to the topping.Flour: I use all-purpose, but you could definitely substitute gluten-free all purpose flour here.Sugar: A little sugar brings out the sweetness of the peaches.Cornstarch: To give the filling a touch and syrupy texture, a little cornstarch will do the trick.Lemon Juice: One or two tablespoons of lemon juice adds an extra punch of flavor (you can also use vanilla extract or almond extract, for a different twist).Fresh Peaches: You’ll need two pounds or so of fresh peaches.

It doesn’t get simpler than this! I love serving this wholesome dessert, full of fresh fruit, real butter and sugar, and pecans. And the fruit? Anything can be used, but soft juicy fruit is most likely to steam and bubble into the topping, which is exactly what you want.īecause peaches are both firm and juicy, they’re great for either dessert! Sometimes oats are added to give the crisp more texture. And some old recipes for cobbler even use a bottom crust, like a pie!Ĭrisps, on the other hand, usually have a streusel-like topping of crumbled butter, sugar, and flour. Biscuits, pastry, and batter are all possibilities. Glad you asked! Essentially, a cobbler is a dessert that uses fairly firm fruit, and some kind of dough for the topping. When the oven heats up and the whole house starts smelling like butter, sugar, warm peaches, and holiday spices, it just brightens the mood and makes life feel so festive! What’s the difference between peach cobbler and peach crisp? The cinnamon-y, strudel-y topping goes perfectly with fresh, sweet peaches-the last of the season. Peach crisp is a really nice dessert for early fall. Do you have a sweet tooth? ?♀️ Me, too! And, I also have a weakness for baking! Making a sweet and wholesome dessert is one of my favorite things to do, especially when I have time for an old-fashioned from-scratch recipe like this.
