Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups nectarines or peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 3/4 cup oats
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 8 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch baking dish.
- Place sliced nectarines, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a bowl and toss to coat.
- In a small bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, and sugar. Cut in cold butter with a fork or pastry cutter until combined, leaving small chunks of butter.
- Place the prepared nectarines into the greased baking dish and top with the brown sugar oat crumble.
- Bake for 24-32 minutes or until the crumble is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the crumble begins to brown too quickly, cover with foil halfway through.
- Serve warm, topped with vanilla bean ice cream for an extra treat.
Notes
- For a crunchier topping, make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces.
- If you prefer peaches, they can be substituted for nectarines in this recipe.
- To make the dessert ahead of time, prepare the filling and crumble separately and refrigerate them until ready to bake.
- This crisp can be frozen both before or after baking. To bake from frozen, add extra time to the baking process.
