Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes
  • Optional: pinch of nutmeg or splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and slice 6 medium peaches into about 1/4-inch thick slices. Toss them gently in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons flour.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture evenly into a 9-inch baking dish, spreading it out level but not packed down.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup old-fashioned oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Mix well.
  5. Add 1/2 cup cold, cubed unsalted butter to the oat mixture. Use a pastry cutter or two forks to work the butter in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
  6. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the peach filling without pressing it down.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges. Tent loosely with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  8. Cool slightly on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow juices to thicken.

Notes

Use cold butter for a crumbly topping and do not overmix to keep pea-sized butter pieces. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with almond or gluten-free flour and use gluten-free oats. Optional nutmeg or vanilla extract can enhance flavor.
