Blueberry Peach Crumbles

   After our trip to the peach orchard the other day,I am up to my ears in peaches.Here is the first of a few different peach recipes that I have for you.This one is really quite easy,and delicious.Just make sure your peaches are ripe!!This recipe was made for two,so just adjust it as needed to make more....you really can't go wrong.

Ingredients:

2 large peaches,cut in half,pits removed

Crumb Topping:
1/4  stick of softened butter
1/4 c. flour
1/4 c. oats
1/4 c. brown sugar
pinch of salt
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
   Using your fingers,blend all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.Keep mixing until you can easily form large crumbs that hold together. Set aside.

Blueberry Mixture:
1/4 c. fresh blueberries
1 tsp. sugar
zest of one lemon
   Mix all ingredients together and set aside until ready to fill the peaches.
    In an oven proof baking dish ,place the peaches,cut side up.Fill the centers with about 1 Tbsp. of the blueberry mixture.Cover the peach with a generous amount of the crumb mixture.
   Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. The crumbs should be golden brown,and the fruit should be soft and bubbling. Serve with vanilla ice-cream and a drizzle of honey .
   These can also be made without blueberries....just peaches and crumbs.They will be equally delicious!

*** The crumbs can be made ahead and frozen in a freezer bag or container.It is a great topping for any type of fruit crisp.
