Streusel Stuffed Baked Peaches

Ingredients
  • 3 very ripe peaches (you can also use canned peach halves)
Streusel Topping:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (plus extra for pan)
  • vanilla ice cream (optional)

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut peaches in half using a sharp knife and scoop out the pits with a melon baller or spoon, creating a well for your oat topping (make sure peaches are very ripe!).
Note: You can also use canned peach halves and skip this step. Canned peaches are a nice alternative because they bake quicker and are more tender than fresh peaches.


Combine flour, sugar, oats, cinnamon, and butter in large bowl and combine with a fork or your fingers, until butter is evenly distributed and mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
Butter the bottom of a baking dish. My peaches fit perfectly in a 7x13 glass baking dish.
Butter the entire outside skin.
Place peaches, cut side facing up, in shallow baking dish. Spoon about 1/2 cup oat topping into peach, creating a mound on top.


Bake for about 30-35 minutes (20 minutes for canned peaches), until peaches are tender and topping is slightly browned.


Serve warm or at room temperature. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and even drizzle with caramel sauce for a true peach crisp!
