How to Make Strawberry Peach Crisp
Step 1: Prep the Fruit Filling
In a large bowl, combine strawberries, peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Gently toss until the fruit is evenly coated. Pour the mixture into a greased 9-inch square baking dish or similar-sized oven-safe dish.
Step 2: Make the Crisp Topping
In a medium bowl, mix together oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture forms moist, crumbly clumps.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit mixture. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes, until the topping is golden and the fruit is bubbly around the edges.
Step 4: Cool and Serve
Let your Strawberry Peach Crisp cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
