Golden crumble topped baked peaches with warm cinnamon spice, ideal for summer gatherings.
# What You Need:
→ Fruit Filling
01 - 6 large ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
04 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
06 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
07 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Crumble Topping
08 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
09 - 1/2 cup rolled oats
10 - 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
11 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
12 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
13 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and salt. Toss gently until peaches are evenly coated. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading into an even layer.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add cold cubed butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture forms coarse, pea-sized crumbs.
04 - Evenly sprinkle the crumble mixture over the peaches, covering completely. Bake for 35 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.
05 - Remove from oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes to allow the filling to set. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
# Helpful Tips:
01 -
- The cinnamon butter crumble gets perfectly crisp while those peaches turn into jammy magic underneath
- It comes together in about twenty minutes but tastes like you spent all afternoon on it
02 -
- Cold butter is the secret to a truly crispy crumble topping that stays distinct from the fruit
- Letting it cool for ten minutes feels impossible but the filling needs that time to set up slightly
03 -
- Rub the butter into the dry ingredients quickly so it does not soften from your hands
- If the top browns too fast, tent loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes
