Ingredients
Scale
Fruit:
- 4 large peaches, peeled and sliced
Crust and Topping Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
Seasoning and Additional Ingredients:
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) milk
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Prepare the oven to 350F (175C) and arrange parchment paper in a 9×13 inch baking dish for easy removal.
- Create a buttery base by blending flour, granulated sugar, softened butter, and salt until it forms a crumbly texture, then firmly press into the dish to establish a solid foundation.
- Gently combine sliced peaches with brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla, ensuring each fruit piece is evenly coated with the sweet, aromatic mixture.
- Distribute the peach mixture uniformly across the prepared crust, allowing the fruits to nestle comfortably.
- Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, watching for a golden-brown crust and bubbling fruit filling.
- While the crumble bakes, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and lemon juice until a silky, smooth glaze emerges.
- Remove from oven and allow the dessert to cool completely, preserving its structural integrity.
- Drizzle the glossy glaze across the surface, creating an elegant, appetizing finish.
- Slice into neat squares, revealing the layers of tender peaches and crisp crust, then serve and enjoy.
Notes
- Choose ripe, fragrant peaches for maximum flavor intensity and natural sweetness that elevates the entire dessert experience.
- Experiment with alternative flour options like almond or gluten-free flour blends to accommodate dietary restrictions without compromising texture.
- Adjust sugar levels based on peach ripeness – sweeter peaches might require less added sugar, while less ripe fruits need extra sweetening.
- Allow the crumble to cool completely before cutting to ensure clean, precise squares and help the layers set properly for a perfect presentation.
