Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling:
- 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced (or 2 cans of sliced peaches, drained)
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
For the Crumble Topping:
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/2 cup (50g) rolled oats (optional for extra texture)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch (23x33cm) baking dish.
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced peaches with sugar, flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until the peaches are evenly coated.
- Transfer the peach mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Make the Crumble Topping:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the oats if using.
- Assemble and Bake:
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peaches.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the peach crumble to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- If using canned peaches, drain them well to avoid a watery filling.
- For added flavor, sprinkle chopped pecans or almonds into the crumble topping.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for a crisp topping.
- This recipe works beautifully with other fruits like apples, berries, or plums.
