Preheat oven to 350 F.
In a bowl stir together thawed and drained peaches and granulated sugar.
Stir flour into peaches until syrup has thickened. (may need more or less flour to thicken to your liking)
Using a slotted spoon, place peaches in a deep dish pie plate. (let the excess syrup drip off. See note). Set aside.
To make the toppings, in a separate bowl stir together brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, all-spice and salt until combined.
Cut in butter using your hands until mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle topping evenly over peaches.
Bake for 35-45 minutes or until topping has browned and crisp. (May need longer)
Let crisp cool slightly to allow syrup to thicken, about 10-15 minutes.
Serve warm with a side of vanilla ice cream. Best served the same day. (Topping will not be as crisp the next day or when reheated.)

Notes
Peaches: If using fresh peaches allow them to sit in the sugar for about 30-40 minutes to soften them.Syrup:If you do not like a very syrupy peach crisp, be sure to let the excess syrup drip off completely before adding peaches to dish or add in enough flour or cornstarch to create a thicker syrup. Also be sure the peaches are FULLY thawed because any extra water will release when the peaches are heated.Spices: Feel free to add cinnamon, lemon juice, vanilla or other spices to the peaches if desired.
