Description
A Strawberry Peach Crisp is a warm dessert made from fresh fruit, typically peaches and strawberries, topped with a crumbly, buttery oat mixture. It’s similar to a cobbler but with a crispier texture on top. The fruit filling is sweet and tangy, while the oat topping provides a satisfying crunch. The dessert is often served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, making it a perfect summer treat.
