Blueberry Peach Crisp


This is the perfect summertime dessert. I like to think that when I am having fruit in my dessert that no matter how much sugar is in the dessert that its "healthy".  I know its not really but it makes me feel better.  This recipe is adapted from Two Peas and Their Pod.   

Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups blueberries
1-1/2 cups peeled and sliced peaches (about 3)
1/2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 all purpose flour

For the topping:
1/2 all purpose flour
1/2 cup old fashioned or instant oats
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
6 tbsp cold butter, diced

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large bowl combine the blueberries, sliced peaches, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, sugar and flour.  Gently toss until fruit is well coated.  Let fruit mixture sit together while you prepare the topping.


In a large bowl combine flour, oatmeal, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt and cinnamon.  Stir together with a fork.  Mix in the butter with a fork until the mixture comes together and you have a big crumble.


Place fruit mixture in a 1-1/2 quart glass baking dish.


Sprinkle the topping evenly with your hands over the fruit mixture.  Place the pan on a baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top browns.


Serve warm or at room temperature.  Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream or both.  

Enjoy!!
