Blueberry Peach Crumble
Description
This Blueberry Peach Crumble starts with a filling mixing fresh blueberries and peeled, sliced peaches with lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, granulated sugar, and a bit of flour. The flour helps absorb excess juice and keeps the fruit mixture from becoming too watery during baking.
The crumble topping blends flour, old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, and cold diced butter, which is worked in to form uneven, coarse crumbs. When baked at 350°F, the topping becomes crisp and golden, providing a crunchy contrast to the tender and juicy fruit beneath it.
This dessert can be served warm or at room temperature, often accompanied by vanilla ice cream for added creaminess and flavor contrast. It suits family gatherings or casual meals where a fruit-based, baked dessert is desired.
The crumble topping can be prepared up to two days in advance and stored refrigerated. The baked dessert keeps well in the refrigerator for up to three days. Individual portions can also be baked in ramekins for personalized servings.
