Ingredients

• TOPPING:
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds
• 3 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• FILLING:
• 6 cups sliced peaches (about 4 to 6 peaches)
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• Vanilla ice cream, for serving, optional

Preparation

Step 1

For the topping: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

In a small bowl, combine the oats, sugar, almonds, butter, cinnamon and salt and stir with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; set aside.

For the filling: In a medium bowl, stir together the peaches, sugar, cornstarch, almond extract and nutmeg and transfer to an 8- or 9-inch shallow baking dish. Crumble the topping over the peach mixture. Bake until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes.

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream if desired.
