Peach Blueberry Crumble

This is a guest post from Sammi of Grounded & Surrounded

Crumbles, crisps, and cobblers. Don’t those delicious words just warm your heart? This Peach Blueberry Crumble is the perfect combination of sweet peaches and tart blueberries. Crumble recipes don’t get much easier than this one, especially considering the topping is just 5 simple ingredients.

Crumbles can be made in a snap. Unexpected company arriving soon? No problem! With a few minutes of prep work, you will have this dessert ready and waiting when your guests arrive. I promise, their noses will lead them all the way to your kitchen.

My favorite attribute of this dessert is the fact that the fruit really shines. No one will ever guess this 10 serving dessert recipe only contains ½ cup of added sugar. Decreasing the sugar levels in the peach and blueberry mixture really allow you to taste the pure sweetness of the fruit.

This healthful Peach Blueberry Crumble can also be a delightful breakfast option (if you are fortunate enough to have leftovers). Warm it slightly and top with a dollop of yogurt. If you are feeling guilty eating dessert for breakfast, simply call it a yogurt parfait!

Here is what you need:

8 cups thinly sliced peaches, peeled and pit removed (7-8 peaches)
2 cup fresh blueberries, washed
1 lemon, juiced (about 2-3 Tbsp) plus zest (about 2 tsp)
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup flour (all purpose, whole wheat, or gluten-free)
½ cup white sugar
1/8 tsp sea salt
½ cup cold butter

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9×13 glass pan with non-stick cooking spray. Then gently mix peaches, blueberries, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cornstarch in large bowl.

Step 2: In a medium-sized bowl, add rolled oats, flour, sugar, and sea salt. Cut in cold butter with pastry cutter or mix with your hands. The mixture should be lumpy and crumbly, hence a crumble.

Step 3: Pour peach mixture into greased pan and spread evenly. Then cover fruit mixture with prepared crumble.

Step 4: Bake for 45-50 min or until the top is slightly browned and the juices from the fruit are bubbling. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve alone or top with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers.

    • Hi Karina! Yes, I have used frozen blueberries in this crumble. I thaw them on paper towels and remove as much extra moisture as possible. Enjoy this delicious dessert with your family :)
