Ingredients
Instructions

- Layer all ingredients in an ungreased 13 x 9 x 2-inch rectangular pan.

Tips & Substitutions
For a nutty twist, try using pecans instead of the mixed chopped nuts. You can also substitute the flaked coconut with oats for a heartier texture. If you're short on time, canned peaches work perfectly; just make sure to drain them well. To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the topping. This dessert is a great way to use leftovers from your Summer Fruit Smoothie!
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Nutty Peach Crisp warm or at room temperature. It pairs beautifully with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert. Consider serving it alongside a scoop of your favorite ice cream for a rich contrast. This dish can also be a tasty addition to brunch, complementing savory options like Herb Bubble Ring or a fresh fruit salad.
Storage & Reheating
Allow any leftovers to cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual servings in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until warmed through. Alternatively, reheat in a 350°F oven for about 10-15 minutes, which will help retain its crisp texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?
Yes, you can substitute fresh peaches! Use about 6-8 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced. Keep in mind that fresh peaches may require a bit more sugar depending on their sweetness, so taste and adjust accordingly. This will give your Nutty Peach Crisp a fresher, more vibrant flavor.
How can I make this recipe gluten-free?
To make a gluten-free version of Nutty Peach Crisp, substitute the Betty Crocker cake mix with a gluten-free cake mix. Ensure that the nuts and coconut used are also certified gluten-free. This way, you can still enjoy the same delicious flavors while catering to gluten sensitivities.
Can I add other fruits to the crisp?
Absolutely! This recipe is versatile, so feel free to mix in other fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or even apples for added flavor. Just keep the total fruit amount similar to the can of peaches to maintain the right texture and moisture in the crisp.
