Recently we enjoyed it on the patio with dinner guests, who helped themselves to seconds—then thirds! It truly is perfect (we think).

Place the peaches in a paper bag. Add a banana inside the bag. The banana emits ethylene gas, which helps the peaches ripen at the same time. Gently close the top of the bag and wait 1 to 4 days, depending on the ripeness of the peaches. Check each day by gently squeezing the fruit to see if the flesh feels soft.

Boil batches of peaches for 45 seconds each. Drop 3 peaches into a pot of boiling water, so that the water fully covers them and boil for 45 seconds. Place into ice water. Remove the peaches from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a bowl of ice water. Drop in the next batch and repeat. Pull off the skin with your fingers. Once the peaches are cooled, use a sharp knife to puncture the skin of the peach, then peel it off in large sheets with your fingers.

Use almond flour for gluten-free. Almond flour is perfect for crisp recipes: it makes an even crunchier crumble topping. Substitute vegan butter or coconut oil for vegan. Vegan butter is the best option for the crunchiest crumble. Coconut oil comes out softer and not quite as crisp. We recommend refined coconut oil, which has a subtler coconut flavor.

It can stand for 1 day covered at room temperature. The topping stays crisp with this method. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. It holds up pretty well in the fridge, and tastes even better when reheated. Freeze up to 3 months. You can freeze peach crisp for up to 3 months in a sealed container. Reheat it in a 350 degree oven until bubbly and the topping is crisp.
