  4. Assemble: Spread peach filling over the crumb base, then sprinkle reserved crumb topping generously.
  5. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 35-40 minutes until edges are golden and filling bubbles.
  6. Cool: Allow to cool completely at room temperature for 1-2 hours before slicing.
