Instructions
- Add the sliced peaches to a medium size bowl.

- Allow peaches to sit for about 20 minutes, to allow the sugar to pull some of the juice out of them.

- Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles small crumbs. Refrigerate the mixture until ready to use.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Drain the peaches, reserving the peach juice, and placing the peaches in a large bowl.
- Measure out 1/4 cup of the peach juice and add it to a small bowl (you can discard the rest, or drink it because it's delicious!).
- Stir in the flour, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon.
- Pour mixture over peaches and toss to combine.
- Pour peaches into a 8x8'' or similar size dish.
- Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and top is set.
