Peach Purée

For a no-fuss summer dessert, look no further than this easy peach crisp. Ripe slices of the fruit are tossed with brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and cornstarch to help thicken the sweet peach juices, then topped with a streusel of flour, butter, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon that gets nutty and crisp in the oven. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream for a perfect bite.

Clean, simple, and brimming with real fruit—this kid-friendly (and adult-friendly) snack is a delicious treat that takes just 4 ingredients to make.

A cobbler is a great way to celebrate summer fruit. Lisa Lavery of the CHOW Test Kitchen loves peaches, and in this video recipe she shares how to make a delicious dessert using CHOW's Easy Peach Cobbler recipe.
