Ingredients:

  • 6 cups (900g) fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp (0.5g) ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  2. Gently fold the mixture until every peach slice is coated in the cinnamon-sugar slurry.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into a 9x9 inch baking dish, spreading them evenly.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt.
  5. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or forks to work the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs with pea-sized lumps.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the peaches without pressing down.
  7. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes until the fruit juices bubble and the topping is mahogany gold.
  8. Allow the crisp to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to let the filling set.
