Fresh Peach Raspberry Crisp โ This peach oatmeal crisp is impossible to resist! The sweet peaches contrast beautifully with the tart raspberries, and that crumble topping is SO good!
Easy Peach Crisp with Raspberries
This dessert takes me back to my childhood summers, my dad’s exploding raspberry bushes, and my mom’s fruit crisps. I hadn’t had a good summer fruit crisp in ages and just had to make one.
My mom made the best raspberry crisps and they will always hold special memories for me. Helping my dad pick raspberries and getting eaten alive by mosquitos in the process, not so much.
For this fresh peach crisp recipe, I didn’t actually pick the raspberries from overflowing bushes. I picked them straight from the TJ’s frozen berries section for $1.99
A nice thing about crisps is that they’re fruit-based and naturally on the healthier side as desserts go. As much as I love peanut butter, chocolate, and caramel things, now that we’re in the height of swimsuit season, lighter is nicer.
If you’re someone who thinks, fruit is not dessert, I assure you this is. The sweet juicy peaches in contrast with the slightly tart raspberries, when paired with the crunchy and crumbly oat-based topping, is just heavenly. So many taste and texture sensations in every bite and I love it.
I’m a sucker for any kind of crumble topping, and when you’re mixing up the topping and sprinkling it on, it looks like a lot. But as the crisp bakes, much of the topping seeps down into the fruit and it turns out to be just the right amount.
The crisp is good enough to stand on its own, and I didn’t add whipped cream or ice cream, although you could probably twist my arm and I wouldn’t say no.
My daughter loved seeing the big red raspberries and their sweet, pink-colored juice staring back at her. I foresee lots of crisps this summer with all different kinds of fruit.

Can I Use Quick Oats in This Recipe?
Definitely not! Quick oats and steel cut oats would both ruin the texture of the raspberry peach crisp topping. Old-fashioned oats (aka rolled oats) are a must here.
How to Make Peach Raspberry Crisp
In a large bowl, toss together the peach chunks, raspberries, sugar, and cornstarch. In another bowl, stir together the oats, butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt (you’ll need to cut the butter in with your hands or a fork).
Turn the fruit mixture into a greased pie dish, making sure to scrape any leftover juices into the dish as well (that’s pure flavor!).
Sprinkle the crumble topping over the fruit, then bake the peach crisp until the edges start bubbling vigorously and the top is golden brown.
Can I Make Peach Crisp Gluten-Free?

Yes, this raspberry peach oatmeal crisp can be doubled. Simply double the ingredients and bake in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Can I Use Frozen Peaches?
Yes, this easy peach crisp may be made with fresh or frozen peaches. I used made this peach crisp with fresh peaches, and the bake time below reflects that. If using frozen fruit, adjust the bake time as needed.
Tips for Making the Best Peach Crisp
Homemade fruit crisps are incredibly fast and easy to make, but they’re the epitome of comfort food and so satisfying. They’re also incredibly flexible based on what you have on hand.
You want to aim for a total of about 4 cups to 5 cups fruit, mixing and matching as you like. Rather than peaches, you could also use nectarines, pears, or mangoes. No raspberries? Try blueberries, strawberries, or blackberries.
Have a mixture of fresh and frozen to use? Go for it. Baking with frozen fruit is cheaper and it’s available year-round. But if you have fresh, you’re lucky. Use them.

Peach Raspberry Crisp
Ingredients
- 2 ยฝ heaping cups diced peach chunks, about 4 medium ripe peaches; I didnโt peel them. Nectarines or mangoes are good subs
- 1 ยฝ heaping cups raspberries, I used frozen and did not thaw first
- ยฝ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold (3/4 of 1 stick)
- ยฝ cup brown sugar
- ยฝ cup old-fashioned whole-rolled oats, not quick cook or instant
- ยฝ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch salt, optional and to taste
- whipped cream, whipped topping, or ice cream, optional for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish very well with cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the peaches, raspberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, and toss gently to combine until all white traces have disappeared; set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, add the butter, brown sugar, oats, flour, cinnamon, optional salt, and using two forks or your handsย (I find my hands work best and itโs the easiest), cut the butter into the dry ingredients until small pea-sized clumps form and some sandy bitsย form; set aside.
- Give the fruit another stir and turn mixture out into prepared pie dish, scraping out and includingย any juice that collected in the mixing bowl.
- Evenly sprinkle the crumble mixture over the fruit. It looks like a lot when sprinkling, but as the crisp bakes, itย seeps down into the fruit and it turns out to be just the right amount.
- Place pie dish on a cookie sheet (insurance is case thereโs an overflow in the oven) and bake for about 45 to 48 minutes, but start checking at about 35 minutes. Crisp should be bubbling quite vigorously near the edges of dish and bubbling to a lesser degreeย in center. Topping should be very lightly golden browned and set.
- Place pie dish on a wire rack to cool for at least 20 minutes, or overnight, before serving. I prefer crisp to set up for a few hours or overnight, but itย can be servedย warm.
- Optionally serve with whipped cream, whipped topping, or ice cream.

Holy sweet, tart, crumbly goodness! Don’t know if it will replace your microwave apple crumble for the #1 spot in my book… guess I will have to try it and find out ;) YUMMMM
That thing is so fast and easy, I know, I love it too – glad you’re a fan as well!
This looks so pretty! I absolutely love peaches and raspberries so I really can’t wait to give this recipe a try. It looks like it would be really easy to turn into a vegan recipe too by replacing real butter with Earth Balance vegan butter. Also, you should definitely try this recipe with rhubarb and raspberries. My grandmother makes it like that and it is so delicious!
Super easy to do that and I was going to say it’s also easy to make GF by using GF flour and/or oat flour (certified GF) made from oats. But then I get so many questions and combinations and well what if this and that, and so I just…didn’t. Because I knew people like you would figure that out on your own :)
This is gorgeous! These colors are beautiful! Love this combination.
love this, averie!! So gorgeous and summery (aka not too heavy)
Thanks Dervla, and for saying hi! Hope you’re doing well! :)
it looks delicious!
I love me a good crisp in the summertime, and I’m adoring this combination of raspberries and peaches. I also like how this crisp stands on its own, though I certainly wouldn’t complain about adding ice cream, either. ;)
Here’s to the summertime, memories and making lots more decadent summer-centric desserts!
I grew up in a fruit & cheese-dessert household; this will most definitely suffice! Gorgeous photos!
Yum, yum, yum. That’s all I can say here, Averie!
Despite mosquitos and poison ivy, I love picking wild raspberries! Every summer I pray we get plenty of wild raspberries, so far last 2 years have been great. Hope this summer I will pick plentiful as well! Thanks for this awesome recipe! Gonna make it! Pinned and stumbled…
Thanks for the double sharing – appreciated :)
Crisps really are the ultimate comfort dessert. I always gravitate towards making them when I want a warm fruity lighter dessert. I love the raspberry peach combo. Top it with some vanilla ice cream and it’s the perfect summer dessert!
Yep, this needs to happen to my face. And ASAP, too.
I love crisps/cobblers — nothing is more summery to me, except maybe s’mores. But what s’mores lack, crisps make up for in that bright burst of fruit and that irresistible crunchy topping. Love the raspberry + peach combo!
Oh we’d have to do a side by side comparison of smores and a crisp, for sure :)
This looks divine, Averie! I love fruit crisps, but have never tried the peach-raspberry kind. I must add this one to my list! :D
Fruit crisps are my absolute weakness Averie! I especially love peach crisps over vanilla ice cream. So good! And I can imagine adding raspberries puts it over the top. I just made a peach pie yesterday. Loving all the fresh summer fruits right now!
Oh you made a pie, well, that’s awesome! I haven’t had any time for anything like that (I am not a great pie crust maker) and so crisps are so much faster for me but there’s nothing better than homemade peach pie. WOW!
The colors in this look amazing, and there’s nothing like a delicious fruit crisp for a summer dessert!
The colors and beautiful fruit in this are so captivating!
Crisps are one of my favorite treats! Their versatility is perfection. I can’t resist diving in almost as soon as it comes out of the oven.
This is so pretty! I love these desserts in the summer with lots of fruit! And definitely agree that frozen fruit is the cheapest to cook with! I love the flavor combo of raspberry and peaches – perfection! Pinned!
Thanks as always for pinning!
