It’s peak peach season, and we’re thinking of Peach Pie Overnight Oats for breakfast, a peach salad for lunch, and some Grilled Peach & Brie Smothered Chicken for dinner… you can’t blame us for loving the light and sweet flavor of the summer fruit.

But we definitely can’t forget to finish the day with a fruity dessert, and Katie Lee Biegel has the perfect dish. Meet The Kitchen co-host’s easy peach crisp that actually contains a lower amount of added sugar than your standard recipe.

A Lower-Added-Sugar Peach Crisp Recipe

After preheating her oven to 400ºF, Biegel prepares her crisp by mixing ½ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ cup light brown sugar, ½ cup rolled oats, a pinch of cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Once the dry ingredients are combined, she mixes in ½ cup of cold, cubed unsalted butter. You can use a pastry blender, food processor, or manually use two knives like Biegel to cut the butter into smaller pieces to incorporate in the mixture.

Then, she tosses 3 cups of sliced peaches with 2 teaspoons of cornstarch and just 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. You may need to use more or less sugar depending on your fruit’s ripeness, per Biegel. Now it’s time for layering: take the coated peaches and place them in the bottom of a baking dish, then top it off with the crisp mixture. The last step is to bake until the top is crispy and golden brown and the middle is cooked through, which should take about 50 to 55 minutes.

A Delicious and Healthy Dessert

With simple steps and ingredients you probably already have on hand, we love how easy and delicious this peach crisp is guaranteed to be. And by only using light brown sugar in the crisp and small amounts of granulated sugar to coat the peaches, Biegel is using lower quantities of added sugar in this dessert to embrace the sweetness of the peaches.

This dessert is not only low in added sugar but also packed with fiber thanks to the serving of oats and peaches. Adding more fiber to the end of your day can promote healthy digestion and keep you satisfied so you won’t feel the need to have a late-night snack. And overall, peaches are amazing for your eye health, skin health, and immune health as they are rich in vitamins A and C.

Conclusion

Trust us and Biegel: this peach crisp is worth turning on your oven this summer. This recipe is very similar to our own Peach Crisp, but we add in some almond extract and sliced almonds for extra nuttiness.
