Sharing is caring!

Fresh peaches and topped with a streusel made with oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter make this Cinnamon Peach Crisp a family favorite.

We are officially in the last week of our summer vacation! The kids head back to school next week but I couldn’t let summer slip by without sharing a couple of peach recipes!

My husband asked if I would like him to pick me up some peaches from a friend, and at the time I had visions of deep dish peach pie, and told him to get two market baskets. Well he came home with peaches, and we went from nice fall-like days, to the hot, humid oppressive days August is better known for. Fiddling around with pie crust didn’t really seem all that appealing suddenly.

I know I have said it before but when you get a craving for pie, but don’t have time to put one together cobblers and crisps are your dessert BFF.  They have all the flavor with none of the fuss.

Cinnamon Peach Crisp is the kind of dessert I love during summer, loaded with fresh fruit, and easy to put together. This Cinnamon Peach Crisp is a variation of Guy Fieri’s Cin-ful Peach Cobbler, and it is delicious. The filling is to die for, and the crunchy topping is SO GOOD! I know, it seems like there is a lot of cinnamon going on in this dessert, but trust me it is the perfect amount.  Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you have peachy perfection!
