4-6 Servings SERVINGS

Ingredients

  • 5 large peaches, pitted and sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 5 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces and softened

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, gently toss the peaches with the cinnamon, nutmeg, 2 tablespoons of the flour, and granulated sugar.
  • To make the topping, combine the oats, brown sugar, butter, and the remaining 1 cup flour in a separate bowl. Mix with your hands until it just comes together.
  • Transfer the peaches to a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and scatter the topping over them. Place the skillet on a baking sheet to catch any overflow. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is browned. Serve warm.
