Get Your Peaches!


My friend needed only to mention peach crisp to get my mouth watering.  'Tis the season for peaches, so I got myself a basket and whipped up some fresh baked peach crisp. Check out this quick and easy recipe I used from allrecipes.com.  Delicious!

Ingredients

  • 6 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and grease an 8 inch square baking dish.
  2. Place the peaches in the bottom of the baking dish, and sprinkle them with almond extract.
  3. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles crumbs.
  4. Sprinkle the flour mixture in an even layer over the top of the peaches, and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, until the peaches are bubbling and the topping is browned.

Choose a low modern coffee table so you don't block the view of a roaring fire. Love the mix of rustic and modern. Awesome tip!
