Blueberry Peach Crisp

Last summer when I put bags of fresh whole blueberries and sliced sweet peaches in my freezer, I definitely had this recipe in mind. I knew I would make this wonderful dessert on a cold, snowy day! Well today is the day. It’s a balmy -6 here in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. With a light breeze coming down from our Northern Canadian neighbors, thus making it feel like a very chilly -25 below zero. Ouch! Today I’m going to make me some blueberry peach crisp and enjoy a spoonful of summer!

Serve this yummy crisp in a decorative martini glass. We went with a set of glasses that I bought on one of my many thrift store expeditions. I paid $2.00 for 4 glasses. You might be able to tell from the photos that these glasses are really quite gorgeous in ‘person.’

 

 

An Afternoon Outside

After a long afternoon on the lake ice fishing, make this recipe for to fry up your ‘catch of the day’ Pan Fried Perch   and fry up your ‘catch of the day.’ For dessert serve Blueberry Peach Crisp. When summer fruit is in season, you can’t beat this fast and easy crisp using fresh picked fruit. But during the long cold months of winter, fresh picked summer ‘frozen’ fruit will do just fine. Don’t forget the ice cream!
