Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9-inch square baking dish or 10-inch cast iron skillet.
2
Peel and slice the peaches into ½-inch wedges. In a large bowl, toss peaches with ⅓ cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
3
Transfer peach mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
5
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry blender or your fingertips, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized butter pieces remaining.
6
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peaches, covering the fruit completely.
7
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown and crisp.
8
Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Frequently Asked Questions
