Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

1 cup rolled oats

1/3 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

1/4 cup sliced almonds or walnuts (optional)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Peaches: Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Arrange them cut-side up in a baking dish.

      Make the Crisp Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well.

        Incorporate Butter: Add the cubed cold butter to the oat mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Toss in the sliced almonds or walnuts if using.

          Add Sweetness: Stir in the honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract until well combined.

            Assemble the Dish: Spoon the crisp topping generously over each peach half, covering them evenly.

              Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the peaches are tender and the topping is golden brown.

                Serve: Allow the baked peaches to cool slightly before serving. Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt for an extra creamy delight.
