Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- Prepare the peach filling: In a bowl, mix diced peaches, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Set aside for 10-15 minutes.
- Make the crust and topping: In a large bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add melted butter and vanilla, stir until crumbly. Reserve 1 cup of the mixture for topping.
- Press the remaining crust mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes until just set.
- Remove from oven and spread peach filling evenly over the warm crust. Sprinkle reserved crumble mixture on top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbling.
- Cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing. For cleaner cuts, refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Do not overmix the crust/topping to keep it crumbly.
- Use ripe peaches for best flavor and texture.
- Cool completely before cutting to avoid a messy presentation.
- Add chopped nuts for extra crunch.
- Use parchment overhang for easy removal from the pan.
