Slow Cooker Peach Crisp Recipe

June 20, 2016 by Anna 30 Comments

Slow Cooker Peach Crisp recipe – sweet peaches, sliced and tossed with vanilla, baked under oats and brown sugar topping that tastes just like oatmeal cookies! This is my favorite crock pot dessert for hot summer days! Served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

For the last two weeks, temperatures here in Kansas are crazy high. We are at almost 100 degrees F every day. And there is no change in sight!

In other words – IT”S HOOOOOOTTTT!

Aaaand from what I can see on my weather app, so is most of the country. Which means that there is a high chance that just like me, you don’t want to turn on the oven. Mine has a “do not open” sign on it. Instead, my slow cooker is getting a work out (this Teriyaki Chicken is on a rotation!) and our grill is sizzling away (don’t mind if I have another helping of these Pineapple Chicken Kabobs!).

Holiday season is the busiest season of them all, not only for us food bloggers, but for everyone. It seems like there is so many errands to run, so many events to plan and attend, so many gifts to make and buy. The two days before the holiday, kitchen is filled with dishes everywhere and ingredients covering your countertops. This holiday season, I want you to have the shortcuts to make your favorite holiday dishes. See my Slow Cooker Sausage Stuffing and the Pumpkin French Toast Bake that you can make the night before or the super easy Roasted Carrots.

Mashed potatoes are right there with stuffing for me. Pure comfort food! I grew up on mashed potatoes and love them with a drizzle of melted butter and a sprinkle of fresh dill or green onions. So good!
