Description

A juicy, golden-topped crisp bursting with ripe nectarines and warm brown sugar oats—the ultimate summer dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large ripe nectarines, sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts
  • Optional: 1/2 cup berries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Wash, pit, and slice the nectarines. Peel if desired.
  3. In a bowl, toss nectarines with granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla. Spread into greased 9-inch baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add butter and blend until crumbly.
  5. Fold in optional nuts or berries if using.
  6. Evenly sprinkle topping over fruit mixture.
  7. Bake 30–50 minutes, until golden and bubbling. Cover loosely with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  8. Cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Swap nectarines with peaches or a mix of stone fruits. For gluten-free, use GF oats and almond flour. Vegan? Sub butter with coconut oil.
