Ingredients
  

Peach Filling
  • 5 cups fresh peaches sliced into 1/2-inch wedges
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch for thick amber syrup
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon visible specks
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
Oatmeal Crumble
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Equipment

  • 1 Shallow ceramic baking dish Or 9-inch cast iron skillet
  • 1 Pastry Cutter To create buttery flour clumps

Method
 

Prepare the Fruit
  1. In a large bowl, toss sliced peaches with granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Let sit for 15 minutes until a thick syrup forms.
Create the Topping
  1. Combine quick oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl.
  2. Use a pastry cutter to incorporate cold butter until the mixture forms uneven, buttery clumps.
Bake and Serve
  1. Transfer peaches to the baking dish and cover with a generous layer of the oatmeal crumble.
  2. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35-45 minutes until the syrup is bubbling and the topping is golden-brown.
  3. Serve warm in a shallow bowl with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream melting over the top.

Notes

Ensure peaches are ripe but firm for the best texture.
Use cold butter to achieve distinct, toasted crumble clumps.
