Here's another great fresh peach recipe for those of you enjoying the fruitfulness of the southeast right now. It is so great served right out of the oven with a little vanilla ice cream on the side. This original blueberry crisp recipe comes courtesy of my mother-in-law. This version serves 3, maybe 4, but can easily be doubled.
Peach Crisp A La Mode
3-4 large peaches, peeled and cut into 1-2 inch pieces
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c flour
1/2 stick butter
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
Stir dry ingredients together. Cut in cold butter (I usually use a potato masher or you can use 2 knives). Place diced peaches into bottom of a 8x8 baking dish. Dash with lemon juice. Sprinkle crumb mixture over top of peaches. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Serve with ice cream.
Today is Brent's 27th birthday! So, first off, I would like to wish my amazing husband a very happy birthday. In honor of his birthday, I am making some of his favorites. For dinner, I am making lasagna which has already been posted. For dessert, it's blueberry crisp! Thanks again to my mother-in-law for this recipe.

1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
Mix blueberries and lemon juice. Place in bottom of 8x8 glass dish. Mix together all dry ingredients. Blend in butter with a pastry blender (I've found that a potato masher or 2 knives also works well). Sprinkle over the blueberries. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
