Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh, ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Combine the peaches in a large mixing bowl, then add the granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Toss gently until well coated. Spread the peach mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Add the butter: Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Assemble: Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peach filling.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Cool slightly before serving for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for enhanced flavor and sweetness.
- Keep your butter cold when making the crumble topping for maximum flakiness.
- Adjust sugar levels based on the sweetness of your peaches.
- Feel free to add chopped nuts to the topping for extra crunch.
