Equipment
- knife
- cutting board
- mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 2 large or 3 medium ripe-firm peaches, halved and pitted
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 3 tablespoons chopped pecans optional
- ¼ cup quick-cooking or regular oats
- 2 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
- Vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a baking dish large enough to hold the peaches. Alternatively, preheat an air fryer to 350°F.
- Halve peaches and remove pits. Use a melon baller to scoop out the center flesh of each peach, creating a cavity large enough for the filling while leaving enough flesh to maintain stability.
- Combine flour, sugars, cinnamon, salt, and pecans. Cut in chilled butter until the mixture is crumbly with pea-sized butter pieces.
- Pack the streusel mixture into the peach cavities.
- Place peaches cut-side up in the baking dish or air fryer.
- Bake in oven for 35-45 minutes or air fry for 5-15 minutes, until the topping is lightly browned and peaches are soft but holding their shape.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving warm with vanilla ice cream.
