Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Unsalted butter (1/2 cup, cold and cubed)
- Salt (1/4 teaspoon)
- Cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
- Brown sugar (1/2 cup, packed)
- Rolled oats (1 cup)
- All-purpose flour (1 cup)
- Granulated sugar (1/4 cup)
- Blueberries (2 cups, fresh or frozen)
- Peaches (4 large, peeled, pitted, and sliced)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, blueberries, and granulated sugar. Toss gently to coat the fruit and set aside to allow the juices to mingle.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
- Pour the fruit mixture into a greased baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) and spread it evenly.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture generously over the fruit, ensuring it is evenly distributed to cover the fruit completely.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and the crumble topping is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
