Warm Baked Cinnamon Spiced Peach (Printable)

Juicy peaches beneath a golden, cinnamon-scented crumble. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Fruit Filling

01 - 6 large ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
04 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
06 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
07 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Crumble Topping

08 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
09 - 1/2 cup rolled oats
10 - 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
11 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
12 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
13 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
02 - In a large bowl, combine peach slices, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and salt. Toss until peaches are evenly coated. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add cold cubed butter. Using fingers or pastry cutter, blend until mixture forms coarse crumbs with pea-sized butter pieces.
04 - Sprinkle crumble mixture evenly over peaches. Bake for 35 minutes until topping is golden brown and fruit filling is bubbling around edges.
05 - Let crumble rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The contrast between bubbling, spiced fruit and that crunchy buttery topping is honestly worth burning your tongue for
  • It comes together so quickly you can decide to make it on impulse and be eating it within the hour
02 -
  • Cold butter is what makes the crumble actually crumble, so resist the urge to soften it
  • The bubbling you see through the topping means the fruit juices have thickened properly
03 -
  • If your peaches are stubbornly under-ripe, let them macerate in the sugar mixture for 15 minutes before baking
  • Place a baking sheet on the rack below to catch any sugary overflow and save your oven from a mess
