Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, toss the sliced nectarines with sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until evenly coated.
In a small bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, with some chunks of butter still visible.
Spread the fruit mixture into a 9-inch baking dish.
Top the fruit with the brown sugar oat crumble, covering it evenly.
Bake for 24-32 minutes or until the topping is golden and bubbling. If the topping starts to brown too much, cover it loosely with foil.
Allow the crisp to cool for a few minutes before serving. Top with vanilla bean ice cream and enjoy!

Notes

If using frozen nectarines, be sure to thaw and drain any excess liquid before using.
For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
If you prefer, you can add chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts to the crumble topping for extra crunch.
This dessert can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking. Simply bake when ready to serve.
