FAQs

1. Can I use frozen peaches or blueberries?

Yes, you can use frozen fruit, though it may release more liquid during baking. If using frozen fruit, you may need to bake it a bit longer to ensure the topping crisps up.

2. Can I make this crisp ahead of time?

You can prepare the crisp ahead of time and refrigerate it before baking. When ready to bake, let it come to room temperature, then bake as directed.

3. Can I add more sugar to the fruit mixture?

If you prefer a sweeter filling, feel free to increase the amount of sugar in the fruit mixture. Start by adding 1/4 cup more sugar and adjust to your taste.

4. Can I make the oat crumble topping without butter?

You can substitute the butter with coconut oil or vegetable oil for a dairy-free version. The texture may be slightly different, but it will still be delicious!

5. How can I make this recipe gluten-free?

To make this gluten-free, simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend and use certified gluten-free oats.

6. How do I know when the crisp is done?

The crisp is done when the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges. You can also check by inserting a fork into the filling; it should feel tender and soft.

7. Can I freeze this peach blueberry crisp?

Yes, you can freeze the crisp before baking. Assemble the entire dish, cover tightly with foil or plastic wrap, and freeze for up to 3 months. To bake, let it thaw in the fridge overnight, then bake as directed.

8. How do I make the topping extra crispy?

For an extra crispy topping, increase the amount of oats in the crumble mixture and bake it for a few more minutes. You can also broil it for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking for an extra crunch.

9. Can I use a different type of sugar?

You can substitute the granulated sugar with coconut sugar, honey, or maple syrup for a more natural sweetener. Just adjust the quantities based on your preferred sweetness level.

10. How do I make the filling thicker?

If the fruit mixture seems too watery, you can add a tablespoon of cornstarch or arrowroot powder to the fruit before baking to thicken it up.
