Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt for the crumble.
- Melt butter until browned; pour over dry mixture. Stir and break into crumbs. Bake crumble for 10 minutes. Cool completely.

- Shape into a disk, wrap, and chill 45 minutes. Roll into 12-inch circle and place into a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp edges and chill again.
- Preheat oven to 400°F with a baking sheet inside. Peel some peaches, chop, and toss with lemon juice.
- In another bowl, combine sugar, flour, spices, and salt. Mix with peaches, let sit, and stir in vanilla.
- Pour filling into pie shell and cover with crumble, leaving edges visible.
- Place pie on baking sheet and bake 20 minutes at 400°F, then reduce to 350°F and bake 40–45 minutes until bubbling.
- Cool on wire rack at least 2–3 hours before serving.
