Preparation

- Press half of the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Spread the peach mixture over the crust, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
- Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the top of the peach layer.
Baking
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden and the peaches are bubbling.
- Once it’s out of the oven, allow it to cool for about 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week or frozen for up to three months. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
