Blueberry Peach Crisp

Happy 4th of July!!

I’m moving at fast speed trying to get ready for my trip.  I’m blogging away, getting work done for a presentation I have to give in Germany and trying to cook and bake so my family have meals while I’m gone. So with all that said, I have to apologize in advance if my blogs seem short.  I have 11 of them to write in just a couple of days.  Ahhhhh!!

I’m so excited for my trip since I have never been to Europe.  I’m just crossing my fingers that there are not any fog delays in San Francisco.  They only gave me an hour between flights!  Eck!!!  .

Today I have a wonderful spring recipe for you that I made for the Holiday Recipe Club.  Our choices of food to use were blueberries, whip cream or barbecue sauce.  I chose to use Blueberries!  You know I just love my fruit!!


This crisp is simply delicious and guilt-free!  I love how sweet the peaches are in it.  I made oatmeal the other day and used peaches and blueberries and I just feel in love with the combination, that I had to make crisp with it.  Fruit crisps are one of my favorite desserts.  I’ll take any kind of fruit crisp any day!

For the fruit I decided to use honey instead of sugar.  The honey really compliments the fruit.  Not intentionally, but I made this crisp gluten-free.  Instead of flour I used gluten-free oat flour which is oatmeal ground up into flour.  There’s also no butter in the recipe, I used melted coconut oil.  This is truly a guilt-free crisp that comes in at 150 calorie a serving, which is a big size, my guess is about a heaping cups worth.

Besides eating the crisp plain, I decided to use it as a topping on my yogurt.  Now normally I keep my crisps, I’m kind of greedy that way, but I decided to take it into work.  I brought it out of the refrigerator at 8 am and by 9am it was pretty much gone.  No one took the last piece, which is pretty common in my office.  I guess people feel guilty about taking that last piece, so I took it and had it for breakfast the next day!  Yum!  The longer it sits the sweeter it gets, but I will say it does start to get a little soggy, but still good!

Don’t you just love the colors?  The peach colors were gorgeous and well the blueberries, are just blueberries.  This was the first time I ever baked peaches before and wow, what a great fruit to bake!!!  This is a definite must do again!!
