A warm and comforting peach crisp featuring a nutty brown butter and cardamom honey oat crumble topping, perfect for cozy nights and seasonal peaches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 medium ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (for browning)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • ⅓ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and slice 5 medium peaches into roughly ½-inch thick slices. Toss them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional), and a pinch of salt. Set aside to marinate.
  3. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 6 tablespoons unsalted butter. Stir frequently until the butter foams and turns golden brown with nutty aromas, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ⅓ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, and a pinch of salt. Pour the warm brown butter and ¼ cup honey over the dry mixture and stir gently until oats are evenly coated and clumps form.
  5. Spread the peach mixture evenly in an 8×8 inch oven-safe baking dish. Sprinkle the oat crumble over the top, covering the peaches fully.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and crisp and the peach filling bubbles around the edges.
  7. Let the crisp rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow juices to thicken and flavors to meld.
  8. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

If topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. For juicier peaches, add 1 teaspoon cornstarch to the peach mixture to thicken. Use medium heat and stir constantly when browning butter to avoid burning. Let crisp cool before serving to allow juices to settle. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained well.
