How about sitting down right now with a nice bowl of peach crisp a la mode. Well, maybe not for breakfast, (although... there is fruit and oats from the crisp and milk and eggs from the ice cream, all essentials of a good breakfast) but maybe for an afternon snack or a nice dessert. Today's recipe is for Peach Crisp and all you have to add for the a la mode is add one scoop of vanilla ice cream to each bowlful of peach crisp for a creamy/crunchy/fruity combination. Yum, Yum, Yummy!

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

7 cups 1/2-inch fresh or frozen peach slices (8 peaches about 3-1/2 lb.), or 1/2-inch cooking apples, such as Granny Smith

2 Tbsp. honey

2/3 cup coarsely crushed graham crackers (5 squares)

2/3 cup packed brown sugar

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

2 Tbsp. rolled oats

1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/3 cup butter

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

For filling, in a bowl stir together granulated sugar, the 2 tablespoons flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Add peaches; toss to coat. Spread in 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Drizzle honey over peaches; set aside.

For topping, in a bowl stir together crushed graham crackers, brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, rolled oats, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle topping evenly over the peach mixture.
