Peach Crisp



Ingredients
For the peaches:
4 cups sliced fresh peaches
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Dash of Nutmeg


For the topping:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cold butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup rolled oats 
1/3 cup pecan pieces  Optionial  
Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
I used peaches that I froze...they produced a lot of juice so I added the flour for thickening.
Place peaches in a medium sized bowl. Add all the ingredients and mix well.

Arrange peach mixture evenly in an 8x8-inch baking dish. I used a 7-1/2 x 11-1/2 pan.

Mix flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl using a pastry cutter until evenly crumbled. Fold oats into flour mixture; sprinkle and press topping into peaches. 


Bake in the preheated oven until topping is lightly browned and the peaches are bubbly, about 30 minutes.
