Ingredients

• 5 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large bowl, mix together the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, almond flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
4. Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Pour the peach mixture into a 9x9-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the peaches, covering them completely.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling.
7. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
8. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
