Ingredients

• 6 large Fresh peaches
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 2 tablespoons Pine nuts (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.

Step 2

Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and slice them into 1/2-inch thick wedges. Place the peach slices into a mixing bowl.

Step 3

Drizzle the honey and lemon juice over the peaches, tossing gently to coat. Transfer the coated peaches into the prepared baking dish, spreading them out evenly.

Step 4

In another mixing bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

Step 5

Add the cold, cubed butter into the dry mixture. Using your fingers, a fork, or a pastry cutter, blend the butter with the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 6

Sprinkle the topping evenly over the peaches in the baking dish. If using pine nuts, sprinkle them on top of the crisp mixture for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the crisp cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm on its own, or pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
