Print Recipe

A warm, comforting peach crisp baked in a cast iron skillet featuring a fragrant cardamom oat topping. Perfect for any occasion, this easy recipe balances sweet peaches with a crunchy, spiced crumble.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5–6 medium ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced (about 5 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly wipe your cast iron skillet with oil if unused.
  2. Peel, pit, and slice peaches to get about 5 cups. Toss in a large bowl with lemon juice, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Stir gently to coat evenly.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture to the cast iron skillet, spreading in an even layer.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, cardamom, salt, and cold butter. Use a pastry cutter or fingers to blend until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized bits.
  5. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the peaches in the skillet.
  6. Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden brown and peach juices bubble around edges.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes to thicken juices.
  8. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

If topping browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil during baking. For watery peaches, add 1 tablespoon cornstarch to the peach mixture to thicken. Cold butter is key for crumbly topping. Peeling peaches improves texture. Well-seasoned cast iron skillet enhances flavor and baking evenness. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained.
