While Julia Roberts is famously private (boundary queen!), the Pretty Woman star has offered a few rare glimpses into her home life. And it turns out, Erin Brockovich is really into cooking. In fact, the Oscar-winning actress once told E! News, “I'm quite a good cook. I'm like a closet home ec(onomics) teacher…I can really cook anything.”
Roberts has said she loves being at home with her family and enjoys taking on the role of homemaker. “I love being a homemaker and that's good for me,” she shared. Though she’s not one to post recipes on social media, she did reveal her favorite summer dessert in an interview with Good Housekeeping: a homemade peach crisp that’s packed with seasonal fruit and topped with a buttery, cinnamon-scented crumble.
If you’re looking for a simple, crowd-pleasing dessert to make this summer, this peach crisp recipe is it. Here’s what makes it so special and exactly how to make it yourself.

Roberts' peach crisp leans into the best part of summer: fresh, juicy peaches. Not only are peaches at their peak in some parts of the country right now, but they're also the most famous fruit from the state of Georgia, where Roberts grew up.
Her peach crisp is also incredibly easy to make, using pantry staples like flour, sugar and cinnamon. You probably have everything you need to whip this up.
One unexpected twist? A splash of Scotch whisky in the filling. While the alcohol cooks off in the oven, it leaves behind a rich, almost caramel-like flavor that elevates the whole dessert. And while Julia’s version stars peaches, the crisp is easily customizable: swap in plums, apples, berries, pears or even a mix of fruits depending on what you have on hand.

How to Make Julia Roberts’ Peach Crisp
Roberts’ fresh peach crisp recipe has been excerpted by Food.com, and it’s incredibly easy to make. To start, preheat your oven to 400° and grease a glass baking dish.
Next, focus on the filling. Cut the peaches into large pieces, then toss them with lemon juice, whisky, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Spread the peaches in the baking dish, then dot them with butter. In a large bowl, mix flour, cinnamon and brown sugar. Cut in cold butter until coarse crumbs form. Press the crumble mixture together to create clumps and sprinkle it over the peaches. Bake until the top is brown and the fruit is bubbly, which should take about 30 minutes. Let the dish cool slightly and serve it warm with ice cream or frozen yogurt.
