1cuppecans
½cup1 stick very cold unsalted butter
1cupflour
1pinchsalt
½cuplight brown sugar
1cuprolled oats
For the Peach Filling
3-4largeripe peaches
¾cuppeach preserves
Grated zest of 1 orange
Vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
Spray the inside of a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray (or rub with butter). Set aside
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Pulse the pecans in a food processor until chopped into smallish pieces (but not ground). Transfer to a large bowl. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch pieces, place it in the food processor with the flour and a pinch of salt and pulse a couple times.
Add the brown sugar and continue to pulse until the butter pieces are pea-sized. Add to the bowl with the pecans along with the oats and use your hands to mix everything together.
Put half the streusel mixture into the bottom of the springform pan and spread it out evenly in a 1/2-inch layer.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until just slightly brown on top.
Prepare the Fruit:
While the bottom crust is baking, slice the fruit and toss it with the jam and orange zest.
Once the crust is baked, remove it from the oven and add the fruit, arranging it in an even layer about 1-1/2 inches deep. Place the remaining streusel on top, spreading it out evenly. Compress the cobbler slightly by pressing down with a rubber spatula.
Bake for 45 minutes. Cool about 10-15 minutes, then carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. The cobbler should stand on its own and you can cut it like a cake.
Serve warm or at room temperature, accompanied by vanilla ice cream. We preferred it warm.
