I loved this recipe. I cut the butter to one stick, left out the raisins and almonds, and cooked it 10 minutes longer to brown the top. I thought the lemon and zest were spot on. I grated some fresh nutmeg into the crisp. I didn't want to use cinnamon because I wanted the peach flavor to dominate, which is exactly what happened. I served it with coconut ice cream...delicious!

i wanted to use the remaining delicious juicy peaches i bought at the farmers market and had a pear that was ready to go; i halved the recipe. It was super easy (I'm challenged in the kitchen and was able to throw this together fairly quickly. I didn't think it missed anything but now i read the reviews it could've used some cinnamon or something. I baked it longer to give it a crisper crust, about 10 minutes more. really yummy and i'll make this again!

I just made this and I agree, the recipe lacks a spice of some kind. I added 1/2 tsp. of cardamon to the crumble and it was deee-licious!One thing I did was swap walnuts for raisins. Served with vanilla ice cream this is truly a great dessert.

I have made this twice. I LOVE it!!! I do not use the lemon at all since my husband doesn't like it. My kids really enjoyed it both times :- I think it would be good with cinnamon, but I like it as is. The crisp on top is my favorite! I always cook it an extra 8-10 minutes without burning to get it really crunchy.

I followed the recipe except for the raisins. Instead of using ramekins, I simply baked it in a 9 x 9 pan. But I was sorely disappointed in the taste. It didn't even dawn on me while I was mixing it up that there were no spices...cinnamon, nutmeg or allspice. The result...totally boring. If I make this again I will definitely add cinnamon and probably a bit of allspice. I also had to bake it nearly an hour, and yes, my oven temperature is accurate.

I used only half a lemon and just a little zest because I read previous reviews and I liked what I tasted without using the full amount. I think a full lemon with all the zest of it would have been too over powering for me and I am a lemon lover. I also added cinnamon and nutmeg to the crisp because they go so well with peaches to me. This crisp screamed CINNAMON. Otherwise, very easy dessert to make. I think I do like Ina's the best though. Also, I left out the rasins because I don't like them in desserts. Just a personal preference. I didn't have almonds so I used pecans which I liked a lot. Don't forget your pinch of salt because it enhances your baking. I notice from reviews that a lot of people think that Anne is over salting, but she only uses kosher salt which is half as salty as table salt. I've started using only kosher salt and I use quite a bit of salt now because of it being less salty.

Good but a little too much lemon and butter. The second time I made it I cut the lemon to 1/2 a lemon and the butter down to 1/4 a cup and I liked it much better. The amount in the original just way overpowered the taste of the peaches.

Yum yum yum.....Mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm. This was excellent!!! I've made it twice now and will make it again when peaches are back in season (you have to use fresh peaches. One of the best comfort deserts i've ever had.

Made it for company, only thing I added was the thick pie sugar on the topping for a more professional look and taste. Loved it. Better than cobbler.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. I thought it tasted great---but I couldn't really taste the peaches, and it's a peach crisp. The lemon and raisins were the star of the show. If you put enough butter and sugar in something, it's going to taste good, but I thought it was overkill. The topping was not crisp because it contained too much butter and it was just sooo sweet. I'm really surprised it has an overall five star rating. I might like it better with apples, but I had some really great peaches that I wasted on this recipe. :(
