Summer has officially come to an end and while I love fall, I am not ready to let summer go yet. I am still soaking up every last ray of sunshine and every last dish coming out of my kitchen that screams summer. I made BLTs the other night and I also had a box of peaches that was just calling to be made into crisps!
If there is hands down one fruit I could eat every day for the rest of my life, it would be peaches. There is nothing better than a runs down your hands juicy ripe peach. And peach cobbler or crisp is probably one of my favorite things on this Earth. I usually make a crisp in a larger pan and for just the hubs and myself, we typically don’t get it all eaten before it is mushy or goes bad. So I got creative and decided to cut my standard recipe down to fit two to three 9 oz. ramekins and bake them individually. Each ramekin is perfectly sized to share or if you’re feeling indulgent, eat to yourself. The hubs and I shared one of these on our anniversary, I know, so romantic. I don’t know about y’alls house but it is true love when you share your dessert with your spouse!
I used fresh peaches for this recipe, but you could use canned or frozen, thawed peaches as well. This crumble topping is my FAVORITE to use on ANY crisp I make, I use it with apples, berries, and even pears whenever I am feeling like a fruit crisp. Top with vanilla ice cream that melts over down into the crisp, it’s pretty much heaven on Earth!
