Filling:
8cupssliced peaches(6-8 peaches, depending on size)
2tablespoonscornstarch
1/2cupsoft brown sugar(100 g) (when I use flat white Saturn (donut/doughnut) peaches, I reduce this to 1/4 cup as they are sweeter than the standard variety)
2tablespoonsorange juice
1teaspoonorange zest
1/2teaspoonpowdered vanilla
generous pinch of cinnamon(about 1/4 teaspoon)
pinchof salt
Method
Preheat the oven to 375°F / 180°C.
Grease a rectangular baking dish or pie pan; set aside.
Using a food processor or mixer, blend together 3/4 of the oats, flour, brown sugar, salt and butter until no dry spots remain. Transfer to a bowl and work in the remaining oats and pecans with your fingers.
In a large bowl, toss the peaches with the sugar, cornstarch, orange juice, zest, vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish; scatter the oat topping over the mixture. Bake for 1 hour or until fruit juices are bubbling and topping is golden brown.
Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool to room temperature (45 minutes to 1 hour). Enjoy!
