Notes
Because nectarines bruise easily, I recommend buying an extra nectarine or two. That way, if you have cut away some of the fruit, you won't run short.
I used light brown sugar, however dark brown sugar would also work.
For a vegan / dairy free crumble, use plant based butter.
If you'd prefer an oat-based topping, feel free to substitute my Oat Crumble Topping. The dessert is delicious either way!
