As a newly diagnosed diabetic, I made this recipe and substituted Splenda for the sugar. I also found a canned dietetic peach filling which I used for the filling, instead of the peaches and sugar mixture. It turned out great! I also reduced the margarine by several tablespoons and it was still great. In my oven, the bottom crust took LONGER to bake--not sure if that was due to my oven or the artificial sweetener. I highly recommend this recipe!

So far I have made this recipe three times. The only thing I did different was the last two times I increased the corn starch a little to make the filling less runny. I can't image why anyone would make this without the crust. The crust is what sets it apart from other crisps, which I have never cared for. I will make this many many more times. My husband loves it and so do I.

I wasn't sure about a recipe with canned peaches, but this was great. It was the best I've ever had! I could not stop eating it!

Will make this tonight with my home-canned peaches. Wish me luck....I am the biggest failure in making desserts.

I tried this and added the almond extract as another revierer suggested and it was delish!

Delicious and you don't want to cut out the bottom crust. It has a wonderful taste and adds to the dessert as a whole. I did cut sugar in crust to 1/3 c and butter to 6 Tbls, in filling I reduced sugar to 3/4 c, and in topping I reduced sugar to 1/3 again and 4 Tbls butter. With all these changes it was still sweet, but you could taste the peaches more than the sugars. Next time I will cut down the flour in the topping as it made way too much for a 9 in square and I would rather have the oats anyway.

I have already made this recipe twice, my boys love it! Substituted canned cherry pie filling for peaches, taks only 20 minutes to have in the oven. great little recipe, will also try it with apples, blueberries, and whatever fruit comes my way. Second time around i used less flour and a third cup of oatmeal in the crust. (love the crust, cant imagine leaving it out!). If you think its too fattening, have only a half serving and take a walk after dinner! Enjoy.

You can just skip the bottom crust and follow the rest of the recipe... That would cut down on the carbs. and the fat:)

I don't usually comment on recipes that I haven't yet tried, but after reading the recipe and other comments, I just wanted to say that for those of you who think this recipe has too much fat and/or sugar, one option is to skip the crust. I have never made a fruit crisp with a crust, so after seeing this recipe I looked up other random recipes for fruit crisps and none of them has a crust! Hope that helps. :)

Wonderful recipe, will make this again. My family loved it!!

Just wanted to share a tip for a wonderful variation... try a 1/4th teasp. of almond flavoring in any peach dessert. It is fantastic and taught to me by a relative that was a whizzzz at cooking. Give it a chance and see if you agree.

You don't need to avoid desserts just adjust to your likes and needs.

This recipe is excellent as written. Deserts are supposed to be sweet. If you people can not handle sweets you need to stay from deserts.

Would make again, with adjustments as other raters have said. Would not use pineapple juice in place of peach as pineapple juice is high in natural sugar for those who are sensitive to sugar. Fresh or frozen peaches are best. In answer to your question, yes we do cook, that is why we are highly aware that these desserts do Not need so much added sugar to taste delicious. Sarcasm not necessary.

YUMMY .... Yes it's over ice cream & yes you can use fresh or canned peaches(do you people really cook?) Improvise, use unsweetened pineapple juice for the peach, be creative, that's what cooking is all about!!

Way too sweet (just my opinion) - too much sugar and fat that is not needed. Also, fresh peaches would be better - but a good idea!

Reviewed on Sep. 12, 2012 by lilithspring

Definitely no. Looks lovely; however, i do not see anything in the recipe that resembles the white portion of the photo...i suspect it may have been served over vanila icecream? Too me it was way too sweet (maybe better with fresh peaches?) - but, just my opinion.

I highly modified this recipe. I cut the butter in half, used about 3 cups fresh peaches, no cornstarch or white sugar (skipped the "filling" section). Next time I would try whole wheat flour and a little less brown sugar. My final product was tasty and I would make my version again, but not using the portions of butter and sugar suggested by the recipe.

Way too sweet! Next time I'll cut out at least half of the sugar because it was just too sweet, I couldn't even enjoy the peaches for the sugar!

Excellent! Made this for a birthday dinner last night & not one morsel left! Next time I will double it & put in a 9x13. Used Splenda white & brown sugars & it was fabulous!

I made this with fresh peaches and I would have liked to put a bit of cinnamon in it because I think that would have put it over the top! This was an excellent recipe!
