A peach crisp is not to be confused with a peach crumble and certainly not with a peach cobbler. To me, a crisp is in a category of its own. The addition of oats to the topping is what classifies a crisp and it is, hands down, the best part. The oats create a perfectly crispy (get it?) topping that's far beyond addicting. It also gives you a motive to debate its ability to qualify as a hearty breakfast. Chopped pecans or walnuts are also perfectly acceptable here as well.
Can I use frozen peaches?
Totally! Peaches are hard to find outside of summer, especially good, juicy peaches. If you want to use frozen peaches thaw them first, then drain off the excess liquid.
Do I need to peel the peaches?
Nope! We love the texture of the peel on the peach so we don't peel first. If you don't love the peel so much feel free to peel them first!
