Steps

1Pre-heat your oven to 375 F (conventional, no fan) and prepare a 9 or 10" round skillet / pie dish by brushing lightly with butter.
2Cut the peaches into thick slices (about 8-12 each depending on how big the peaches are). Gently toss them with the brown sugar, cornstarch, salt and cinnamon and transfer to the baking dish / skillet.
3In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, oats, sugar and salt for the oat crumble topping. Add the cold cubed butter, and rub it in with your hands until the mixture resembles a crumble. This may require a little pressure to press into the butter cubes and mix them with the dry ingredients. Do not overmix or knead. You can also use a pastry cutter for this step.
4Spread the toasted chopped walnuts on top of the peach filling in the baking dish.
5Cover with the crumble topping; it can be a bit rustic, no need to be perfect!
6Bake for 40-45 minutes. If the crumble still looks too light in color after 45 minutes, change the setting from bake to broil and broil for just 2-3 minutes to add a golden color. If the crumble starts to get golden too soon, you can cover it with aluminum foil to prevent it from burning.
7Let the crumble rest for 15 minutes. Then serve and enjoy! I love to serve with plain whipped cream (unsweetened) but you can also use vanilla ice cream.
