  •  So easy! This isn’t your typical pie; you don’t need to make and form a perfect pie crust and worry about the edges flopping or burning. All you have to do is place the filling in the pan and throw on the streusel topping. 
  • Completely foolproof! No need to bring out the perfectionist with this berry peach crisp because it turns out perfect and delicious every time without much effort.

About the Crisp

A crisp is very similar to a cobbler and easier than pie–literally. You make your fruit filling just like you would for a cobbler or a pie, spread it into the bottom of a round pan, and then top it with some form of streusel or crumble topping. You can top it with panko, oats, nuts, a flour and cinnamon sugar mixture, or anything you can think of.

The best part? You don’t need to make a pie crust or worry about it in any way. Crisps take less time, are easier to make, and are absolutely delicious.
