Ingredients

  • 6 cups fresh peaches, sliced (about 6–7 medium peaches)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (100 g)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot starch
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (95 g)
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (75 g)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (100 g) for topping
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (113 g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine the sliced peaches and brown sugar and gently toss to coat.
  3. Add the lemon juice, vanilla extract, arrowroot starch, and salt. Mix until the peaches are evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the peach mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
  6. Add the softened butter and work it into the dry ingredients with your fingers or a fork until coarse crumbs form.
  7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peaches.
  8. Bake for 45–55 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges.
  9. If the topping browns too quickly, loosely cover the dish with foil.
  10. Remove from the oven and allow the crumble to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  11. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

  • Frozen peaches can be used; add an extra tablespoon of arrowroot starch if needed.
  • Peeling peaches is optional as the skins soften during baking.
  • Ensure the topping forms crumbly clusters for the best crisp texture.
  • Allow the crumble to cool slightly so the filling thickens.
  • Add nuts such as pecans or almonds to the topping for extra crunch.
