🍑 Ingredients You'll Need
- Peaches: Fresh, ripe ones are best, but canned (drained) or frozen (thawed) work too.
- Brown sugar + granulated sugar: Adds sweetness. Substitute maple syrup, cane sugar, or coconut sugar if needed.
- Lemon juice: Brightens things up and keeps the peaches from tasting flat.
- Vanilla extract or almond extract.
- Ground cinnamon: A must with peaches.
- Rolled oats: The key to that crumbly, crisp topping. Quick oats work too.
- All-purpose flour: Helps bind the topping. Gluten-free flour works too.
- Unsalted butter: Cold and cubed.

Can I Use Canned or Frozen Peaches?
Yes! Canned peaches should be well-drained. Frozen peaches need to be thawed and patted dry. Fresh is best when they're in season, but this recipe doesn't discriminate.
Do I Have to Peel the Peaches?
Nope. I usually don't. The skins soften while cooking and give a little texture. But if you're not into it, peel away.
🥣 How to Make this Easy Air Fryer Peach Crisp
Step By Step Instructions
- Step 1: Prep the peaches. Slice peaches into ¼-inch slices. Toss in a bowl with brown sugar, flour, lemon juice, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Step 2: Make the topping. In another bowl, mix oats, flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt. Add cold butter and work it in with your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture is crumbly.
- Step 3: Assemble. Lightly grease a small, oven-safe dish that fits in your air fryer basket. Add the peach mixture, then top evenly with the oat topping.
- Step 4: Air Fry. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Air fry for 15-18 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
- Step 5: Cool and Serve. Let the fruit crisp cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Then serve warm with a scoop of Ninja Creami Vanilla Ice Cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
