Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium sized peach
  • 3 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp old-fashioned oats
  • 2 Tbsp chopped pecans
  • 1 Tbsp melted butter
  • ¼ tsp vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and set a mesh strainer over a large bowl.
  • Cut the peach in half and then peel the peach. Thinly slice the peach and place into the strainer.
  • Sprinkle the 3 tsp of granulated sugar over the peaches and lightly toss. Let the peaches set for at least 10-15 minutes and while you mix the other ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, oats, and pecans. Set aside.
  • Place butter in a small bowl and melt in the microwave. Mix in the vanilla.
  • Pour the butter-vanilla mixture into the dry ingredients and mix with a fork.
  • Lightly shake the mesh strainer to shake off excess liquid. Reserve or discard the extra liquid. It make a great syrup!
  • Layer the peach slices in a small ramekin (no bigger than 6 inches). You may not use all the peach slices if it start to get full.
  • Crumble the topping over the peaches.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
  • Pull out of the oven and cool for at least 15 minutes. It will appear very juicy when you first pull it out of the oven, but the liquid will thicken as the peach crisp cools.

Notes

Storing and Reheating
You can easily store this in the fridge for a few days if you’re not going to eat it right away! Simply cover with foil or plastic wrap once the crisp is completely cooled and transfer to the fridge. To reheat, microwave for about a minute, until the crisp is either warm or hot, depending on your temperature preferences.
