Ingredients
- 6 medium, sliced into 1/2-inch wedges peaches
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tbsp, finely grated fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 3 tbsp, cold and cubed unsalted butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a 9-inch baking dish, toss 6 sliced peaches with 1/4 cup honey, 1 tbsp grated ginger, and 1 tbsp lemon juice, spreading evenly.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats, 1/4 cup rolled oats, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Add 3 tbsp cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter to work until crumbly and pea-sized.
- Step 3: Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the peaches, pressing gently to adhere. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling around the edges.
- Step 4: Let cool for 15 minutes before serving, allowing the honey syrup to thicken and the peaches to absorb the flavors.
