Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large nectarines
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 scoop per serving vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish and set aside.
Wash and slice the nectarines into 1/4-inch thick wedges, discarding the pits.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the sliced nectarines with granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch until evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
In another mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Stir to mix.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes. Add the butter to the oat mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the nectarines in the baking dish, ensuring even coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the nectarines are bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, if desired.
