Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Topping:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Assembly:
1 1/2 cups pecans
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
2 1/4 pounds peaches (about 7 medium), cut into 1/2" wedges
1/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Topping:
  • Whisk flour, brown sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until clumps form and no dry spots remain.
  • Assembly:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Toast pecans on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until slightly darkened in color, 8-10 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop.
  • Smear bottom and sides of a 10" cast-iron skillet with butter. Toss pecans, peaches, brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, garam masala, and salt in a large bowl to combine. Transfer to skillet and crumble topping, breaking up into large pieces, over filling.
  • Bake crisp until topping is golden brown and juices are thick and bubbling around the edges, 25-35 minutes.
  • Do Ahead
  • Crisp can be made 1 day ahead. Store lightly covered at room temperature.
