Description

Browned butter coats tender peach slices, bubbling with cinnamon sweetness. A golden oat crumble bakes to crisp, filling the kitchen with warm, nutty aroma and promising spoonfuls of juicy fruit bliss.


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 cups peeled and sliced peaches
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small saucepan melt butter over medium heat, swirling occasionally until fragrant and brown bits form, about 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
  3. In a large bowl combine peaches, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt; pour half of the browned butter over the mixture and toss to coat.
  4. Transfer peach mixture to a 9-inch baking dish.
  5. In a medium bowl mix rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt; pour remaining browned butter over the oat mixture and stir until crumbly.
  6. Evenly sprinkle the oat crumble over the peaches.
  7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbly.
  8. Let the crisp cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute nectarines or apples for the peaches.
  • For extra crunch add chopped nuts to the topping.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
