This simple baked peach dessert is perfect when you need something quick but satisfying. Frozen peach slices release moisture as they cook, gently steaming the topping while the butter helps it turn crisp and golden. The flour, sugar, and cinnamon combine into a rich crumble that bakes into a firm, slightly crunchy layer, holding in the juicy peaches underneath. The end result is a warm, cobbler-style dessert with a crisp top and a thick, syrupy fruit base.Butter
Ingredients
4 cups frozen peach slices (do not thaw)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. Prepare the Base
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the frozen peach slices directly into a 2-quart baking dish and spread them evenly.
Tip: Keep the peaches frozen. This helps control how the juices release during baking, preventing a soggy topping.
2. Make the Crumble
In a bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture becomes thick and crumbly.
3. Add the Topping
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the peaches. It’s fine if the surface looks uneven—those small clumps will bake into crispy, golden bits.
4. Bake
Place the dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 40–50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling around the edges.
5. Let It Rest
Remove from the oven and let the dessert sit for 15–20 minutes before serving.
Tip: This resting time allows the juices to thicken into a smoother, richer sauce.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of ice cream for extra indulgence.
