Why this recipe works:
There is something comforting and charmingly old-fashioned about a crumble or crisp.
It's like a dessert-hug grandma would have made and given for Sunday dinner when the family was coming over.

What size baking dish is best for this recipe?
I used a 9 x 11 baking dish, which, for some, may be an unusual size.
However, feel free to use an 8 x 12 or even a 9 x 13 baking dish (if those are the sizes you have).
Just be aware that the baking times will vary slightly from what is written in the recipe card.
How will I know when my blueberry peach crisp is fully baked?
You'll know your crisp if fully baked when the fruit juices exude from the top and outer edges of the crisp.
Can frozen fruit be used in this recipe?
If you'd like to make this recipe for Berry Fresh Blueberry Peach Crisp year-round when fresh berries and peaches or nectarines are no longer in season, please feel free to use frozen fruit.
Just make sure you partially thaw the fruit before proceeding with the recipe.
Can other fruit or berries be used for this recipe:
Sure!
As long as you use fruit and/or berries that are roughly the same size (like apples that are chopped the same size as blueberries, for example), it shouldn't be a problem.
Ensuring the fruit and berries are approximately the same size is your best bet to having them cooked through at the same time in the oven.
Can this blueberry peach crisp be frozen after baking?
You bet!!
Cool it completely, and cover it well with plastic wrap (if freezing in the same baking container), and freeze it for up to 2 months.
However, if you're transferring your cooled crisp to different containers for freezing, you can store the crisp in air-tight freezer containers for up to 3 months.
The step-by-step photo instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375-degrees.
- In a large bowl with a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream the softened butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat well.
- Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to the butter mixture and blend until thoroughly combined.
- Spread the dough evenly into the bottom of a 9 x 11 baking dish that has been sprayed liberally with baking spray.
- Spread the canned peaches evenly over the crust layer in the baking dish. Top the canned peaches with the fresh slices of peaches or nectarines and top with the blueberries. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together all the crisp ingredients to form a crumbly, sandy mixture.
- Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over top of the fruit filling.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the crisp topping is golden brown and the fruit filling starts to bubble up along the sides.
- Cool slightly and serve warm.
