With its buttery, crumbly topping and warm spiced filling, it’s a treat the whole family will love. Unlike a traditional peach crumble with oats, this version bakes up with a classic streusel-style crunch that’s simple, cozy, and delicious.

The Players for Peach Crumble without Oats

Ingredients:

Ingredients for Peach Crumble without Oats Recipe.
  • Peaches – I’ll be using 24-ounce canned peaches (undrained), but feel free to use fresh peaches!  I would suggest about 5 peeled and sliced peaches.  Depending on the sweetness of your peaches, you might need to add a small amount of sugar.  I suggest 1/4 cup of sugar.
  • Butter – To make the buttery crumble topping, I use 1 stick of melted salted butter.  If you prefer unsalted butter, add a small pinch of salt.
  • Flour – Plain white all-purpose flour is all you’ll need.
  • Sugar – White sugar is needed for the crumbly topping.
  • Brown Sugar – The addition of light brown sugar adds a touch of molasses flavor to the crumb topping.
  • Spices – A dash of ground cinnamon and nutmeg goes into the buttery topping. 
  • Vanilla – I add just a splash of vanilla extract to this easy peach crumble recipe.

How to make this Easy Peach Crumble without Oats

Place the oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish and set aside.

Pour the canned peaches (with juices) into the baking dish.

Mix the flour mixture with either a pastry cutter or a fork until the topping mixture is crumbly. Place it in the fridge for 10 minutes to cool slightly.

Once the crumble topping is slightly cool (doesn’t need to be cold – 10 minutes is perfect for me!), sprinkle the crumble mixture over the peaches in the baking dish.

Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the juicy peach filling is bubbling around the edges. If you find that your crumble is browning too quickly, tent it lightly with aluminum foil. Personally, I’ve never had to do this.

What’s the Difference between Cobblers, Crumbles, and Crisps

Cobblers, crumbles, and crisps are all beloved fruit desserts, but they each have their own unique twist:

  • Cobbler – Stone fruit filling (although not always stone fruit – can use berries and/or orchard fruits like apples and pears) topped with either a cake-like batter or biscuit dough.
  • Crumble – Fruit crumble topped with a streusel-like mix of flour, sugar, and butter; no oats.
  • Crisp –  A crisp recipe is very similar to a crumble topping, but it includes the addition of oats and sometimes nuts too!  If you’re looking for fruit crisps, check out my Apple Crisp With Oats Recipe!
