½ cup granulated sugar
1½ cups packed light brown sugar
1½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 tsp kosher salt
2 cups old-fashioned oats

1 tsp corn starch
2 tbsp water
1 tsp fresh lemon juice

1 tsp granulated sugar
Preheat the oven to 300° F. Butter a 10-inch cast-iron pan. Prepare the topping whisk together the flour, sugars, cinnamon, salt, and oats in a large bowl. Drizzle in the melted butter and stir until pea-sized clumps form. Spread the topping out evenly on a baking sheet and bake, stirring every 5 minutes, for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Increase the oven temperature to 350° F. For the filling, whisk together the sugars, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Toss the peaches in the mixture. Melt the butter in a large sauté pan and sauté the peaches for 15 minutes over medium-low heat to soften.

Tricia is a native Washingtonian, born and raised in Columbia Heights. She loves DC so much that she was only able to leave the city for one year after college and immediately came running back. She’s lived in Navy Yard for the last few years and is excited to see all the new restaurants finally moving into the neighborhood. Tricia works in PR during the day, and spends her nights trying out new restaurants in DC with friends or watching The Good Wife, Scandal, Bones and Grey’s Anatomy. A couple of years ago Tricia decided to eat at all of the 100 Very Best Restaurants until she realized she would be old and broke by the time she finished. Unfortunately, part of that fate might still come true due to her obsession with Uber.
