One of my favorite new recipes with blueberries is a Blueberry- Peach Crisp. I found the recipe in our local newspaper a few weeks ago and thought no way that can't be good there is no sugar in it! Brown sugar on top, but no added sugar to the berries. The recipe was in an article by Sonia Scherr and adapted from thefreshmarket's recipe. Well, I changed it a bit myself Smiling so here is my version.
3 - 4 Large Peaches cut into tiny chunks or thin slices
3 cups Blueberries, fresh or thawed frozen
1 Tablespoon of Cornstarch
Juice from one large Lemon ( 2 - 3 Tablespoons, adjust if you like more or less lemony flavor)
TOPPING:
1 Cup All Purpose Flour
1 Cup Brown Sugar packed
1 1/2 Cups Old-fashioned Rolled Oats
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 Teaspoon Nutmeg
8 Tablespoons unsalted Butter, melted (or salted butter and leave out the 1/2 tsp salt)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix the peaches, blueberries, corn starch and lemon juice.Place in a 8 x 8 x 2 baking dish. In a medium bowl mix the flour, brown sugar, oats, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, pour in melted butter and mix again. Sprinkle the oat mix over the top and bake 45 minutes. Top with whipped cream, ice cream or my favorite lemon sherbert.
The recipe is easy and flexible, if you like more peaches or blueberries, thicker or thinner topping.
