A comforting dessert featuring jammy peaches with a crunchy golden topping, perfect for summer evenings and family gatherings.
Ingredients
For the Peach Filling
- 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
For the Crumble Topping
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Stir gently until the peaches are evenly coated and let them sit for about 5-10 minutes.
- Pour the peach mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or a fork to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peaches.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden.
- Once finished, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
