How to Make Peach Crumble

I’m going to share with you how to make peach crumble.

I’m also going to share with you WHY I only use Einkorn Flour!

Sliced Peaches

On our way home from Atlanta, Emma and I had to stop to get some Georgia Peaches. I think it might actually be a sin to leave the state in late July without them.

If you’ve been following along for a while, you will know that I’m not a baker. I love to cook but I just can’t seem to bake.

I do however know how to make crumbles and cobblers because they are pretty foolproof.

When we got home, I set to work making my peach crumble. I originally was going to make it a crumble/cobbler but that is basically taking all the yummy sugary goodness and using it for both the crust and the topping.

Since we are desperately trying to watch what we eat at this small house, I opted for the crumble only.

I sliced up 6-7 peaches and put them in a large bowl. Added sugar, lemon juice, and spices. I then let it sit on the counter for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, so that the peaches could soak up all the flavors.

Then I put the crumble together.

I poured the peach mixture into a baking dish, topped it with the crumble, and baked it. My crumble wasn’t as browned as I would have liked so I put it under the broiler for a few minutes to give it a pretty baked top.

Why I use Einhorn Flour?

Einkorn grew wild in the Fertile Crescent hundreds of thousands of years ago. The first bread was made with einkorn, and it was Ötzi the Iceman’s last meal.

Einkorn was the first seed planted by the first farmers 12,000 years ago during the Neolithic Revolution. Einkorn moved toward extinction during the Bronze Age. Left untouched, it’s the oldest and purest food in existence today.

Because it is so pure, it is easily digested and can typically be tolerated by folks who are sensitive to gluten.

I personally love the buttery, nutty flavor. I use Einkorn exclusively in my homemade bread and sourdough starter.

Try it! I promise you will love it.

Peace,

Signature
