Ingredients:

  • 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (90g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup (150g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1/2 cup (115g) cold unsalted butter, cubed

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Toss the sliced peaches with granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a 9x9 inch baking dish. Note: Stir gently so you don't mash the fruit.
  3. Pour the all purpose flour, rolled oats, light brown sugar, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
  4. Cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry mixture.
  5. Work the butter in with a fork until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs with a few pea sized lumps remaining.
  6. Spread the crumble topping evenly over the peaches. Note: Press down very lightly with your palm.
  7. Bake for 35 minutes.
  8. Remove from the oven when the topping is deep golden brown and the juices bubble vigorously around the edges.
  9. Let it sit for 15 minutes before serving. Note: This allows the sauce to set so it's not runny.
