Ingredients
For the brown butter:
- 2 sticks (8 ounces) butter
For the fruit filling:
- 3 cups peach slices (about 5 peaches)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste or extract
- 1/4 cup brown butter
For the crisp topping:
- 1.5 cups old fashioned or rolled oats
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown butter
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste or extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Next, make the brown butter. I make it right in the same 8-inch cast iron skillet I will make the crisp in. You don't have to make this crisp in a skillet though - you can use an 8x8 baking dish, a cake pan, or a pie plate.
- Place butter in skillet over medium heat and melt. Turn heat up to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally until butter foams and browns. Remove from heat and pour off 1/2 cup, leaving the remainder in the pan. It might be a bit more than 1/4 cup but that's ok. (if using a different baking dish transfer the remaining brown butter to that dish)
- Add peeled, sliced peaches directly to the same skillet or to your baking dish of choice along with remainder of filling ingredients. Stir to combine thoroughly.
- Next, make the crisp topping by combining all crisp topping ingredients in a small bowl and stirring to thoroughly combine. Cover fruit with crisp topping.
- Place in preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes until filling is bubbly and top has browned slightly.
