Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Filling

  • 4–5 ripe, firm fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Crumble Topping

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free option)
  • 3/4 cup rolled oats (certified gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed (or coconut oil/vegan margarine for vegan option)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit Filling: Peel and slice the peaches. Rinse the mixed berries. In a large bowl, toss the fruit with granulated sugar, lemon juice, salt, and cinnamon until well combined, allowing the natural sweetness and bright flavors to meld.
  2. Make the Crumble Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, rolled oats, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add cold, cubed butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces, ensuring a tender, crunchy topping.
  3. Assemble the Crumble: Transfer the fruit mixture evenly into a baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping generously over the fruit, covering all areas to create a perfect balance of soft fruit and crispy topping in each bite.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled crumble for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling bubbles at the edges, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the crumble cool slightly to allow the fruit filling to thicken. Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, toasted nuts, or fresh mint for an extra indulgent touch.

Notes

  • Use firm peaches and berries to prevent a watery dessert.
  • Cold butter is crucial for a flaky, crisp topping.
  • Do not overmix the crumble topping; mix just until crumbly.
  • Frozen berries can be used but should be thawed and drained before mixing.
  • Adjust sugar according to the natural sweetness of your fruit.
