Desserts, Freezer meals, Recipes
By Mavis Butterfield on - 29 Comments
If there is one thing I love to do, it’s stock my freezer with freezer meals {or freezer desserts in this case}. The school year is a really busy time for us and knowing I have several desserts tucked into the freezer for sports banquets, last minute entertaining and the weekends makes my life a lot easier.
By preparing several {okay 10!} of these peach crisp desserts in advance, all I have to do is pull them out of the freezer and pop them in the oven when I’m ready to use them.
Now that’s what I call planning ahead.
This peach crisp recipe is quick and easy to make and has been loved by many over the years.
I hope you like it as much as we do. 🙂

Looks yummy!
I love freezer cooking but my big downfall is remembering to thaw them in time to cook them. This recipe is perfect for me because I can cook it right out of the freezer.Do you have any tips for remembering to thaw foods or do you cook all your freezer foods from a frozen state?

I cook from a frozen state. My theory is, if I were to buy a peach crisp from the frozen foods section, that’s what the instructions would say. 🙂

I love these! But where are you finding the containers with lids?

I was wondering the same thing. I picked some up yesterday at Dollar Tree but they don’t have lids. I figure I will need to create my own.

I have a plum tree. I wonder if this would work as well with them. Anyone tried that yet? 🙂

I made 14 large peach crisps for my grand-daughters wedding. How do I defrost without losing the crunch as won’t be able to warm up day of wedding.

My dad lives in FL and I’m headed down for a visit next month to do some freezer cooking for him. I would love to make some smaller sized ones for him (lives alone, but has an insatiable sweet tooth!). Anybody have any clues on if/how the cooking time would need to be adjusted for a two-serving sized package?

I would just bake until I see the juices bubbling to the top.

Would this work with apples?

I haven’t tried it with apples yet but I don’t see why not.

I’ve found foil 8″ or 9″ pans at Target; try googling.
I like ANY fruit in Crisp! We watch our sugar intake and many desserts are too sweet for us. Depending on the sweetness of the fruit, adjust to your taste. Rhubarb Crisp is different, obviously.

Could you do this with mixed berries? If you use frozen fruit, do you defrost first?
Reply
Mavis Butterfield says
Yes! And no, I don’t think I would defrost frozen fruit first.

RE: flour in recipe. I prefer using cornstarch. Try both and choose your preference.

What temp from frozen and how long please

I made this in a small foil pan and it was good, but the timing for baking from frozen is wrong – it took about 1.5 hours to get to bubbly. I see that in a comment above Mavis gives the same bake time and temp instructions for thawed as for frozen, which can’t work. Nice recipe that I’ll make again.
