Ingredients

Scale
  • Two 15-ounce cans of sliced peaches in juice or light syrup (drained slightly, but keep some juice for moisture)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust depending on the sweetness of your peaches)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease your 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Drain canned peaches but reserve about 1/4 cup of the juice to mix back in for moisture. In a bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Stir gently to coat evenly.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer. The juices should be visible but not watery.
  4. Brown the butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Keep stirring as it melts and begins to foam. Within minutes, small brown bits will appear and the butter will smell nutty. Remove from heat immediately to avoid burning.
  5. Make the crumble topping: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, salt, and baking powder. Pour the warm brown butter over the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the peaches in the baking dish, covering the surface. Don’t press it down—leave it loose for a nice crunchy texture.
  7. Bake the dump cake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the peach juices are bubbly around the edges.
  8. Cool slightly before serving—about 10 minutes—so the topping firms up a bit but the peaches stay warm and juicy.

Notes

Brown butter carefully to avoid burning; stir continuously and remove from heat as soon as nutty aroma appears. Do not overmix the crumble topping to keep it coarse and crunchy. Use glass or ceramic baking dish for even baking. Keep some peach juice for moisture. Tent with foil if topping browns too fast. Can substitute gluten-free flour and dairy-free butter alternatives for dietary needs.
