Instructions
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, place the sliced peaches and blueberries. Toss gently to combine. If fruit is very sweet, add a squeeze of lemon or 1–2 tablespoons of sugar to balance.
In a separate bowl, stir together the brown sugar, rolled oats, flour, cinnamon, and salt until evenly mixed.
Pour the melted butter into the dry mixture. Stir with a fork until the mixture becomes crumbly and holds together when pressed.
Spread the fruit evenly in a 9×13-inch or similar baking dish. Press down slightly so the fruit is in an even layer.
Scatter the oat-butter mixture evenly over the fruit, covering as much as possible.
Baking
Bake for 30–35 minutes. The topping should be golden-brown and the fruit should be bubbling around the edges. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil for the last 10 minutes.
Let the crisp rest 10 minutes before scooping. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 30–60 seconds, or warm the whole dish in a 325°F oven for 10–15 minutes. Freeze cooled crisp in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
