In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and a pinch of salt. Toss until the peaches are evenly coated.
Transfer the peach mixture to a 9×13-inch baking dish or a similar-sized ovenproof dish.
Make the Crumble Topping:
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cold, diced butter. Use a pastry cutter, fork, or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
Assemble and Bake:
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peach filling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the peach crumble to cool slightly before serving. This lets the juices thicken up a bit and makes it easier to scoop.
Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
This peach crumble is a simple and satisfying dessert that brings out the best in fresh peaches. Enjoy every comforting bite!
