Nectarine Crumble

This is such a classic dessert. I don't usually set out to make it per se, it is usually when we buy a basket of some fruit and they start to ripen too quickly. It's a good way to use up peaches, nectarine, apples, and anything else similar. I'm not sure if this is a "Crisp" or a "Crumble" - some say they are the same thing. It's definitely not a "cobbler".

You start with almost any fruit - peaches work really well, and apples is a classic. Also, any baking spice will work. I like to go easy on the cinnamon and heavy on the nutmeg.

and a bit of flour and sugar

We like ours with lots of crumble topping - and it has to have oats in it. 

Crumble topping - basically flour, brown sugar, oats, and butter

A little vanilla ice cream completes the package.
