Peachy Birthday
We picked up 40 pounds of peaches the other night. I’ll be canning them up this weekend. I do so love canned peaches. There’s something about having fresh peaches in the house, however; that just demands that cobbler be made. I wasn’t in the mood for my most favorite cobbler, however; and decided to make a peach crisp instead.
Peach Crisp Topping
-
1/2 Cup Cornmeal
-
1/2 Cup Flour
-
1/3 Cup Salted Butter (if you use unsalted butter, add a pinch or two of salt)
-
1/3 Cup Sugar
Mix the dry ingredients and cut the butter into the mixture. I use my fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until its good and crumbly.
Assembling The Crisp
Peel, pit and slice your peaches. (For individual ramekins, I put about 1 and half peaches per container. You could do an pie plate size instead, for that I’d use 3 to 4 cups of peaches). Layer the peaches into your container of choice. You could add lemon juice to prevent browning (I didn’t and they look just fine), and you can add some additional sugar to the peaches if you’d like (I don’t, I like the tartness). Top your container(s) with the topping, pressing gently.
Bake at 375 degrees for 20-30 minutes depending on your container size. The fruit should be bubbling and the topping should be golden. Serve warm, I like mine with just a touch of milk on it, but ice cream and/or whipped cream would be awesome too.

Today is my 34th birthday and I woke up with a pimple on my chin. Seriously, how old will I be when I stomp getting pimples? I suppose I’ll go from pimples to wrinkles! Thanks so much to everyone who reads this blog and comments and to all of you who have become my community – you are the best birthday present this blogger can imagine.

See you on Sunday over at Women Not Dabbling In Normal, where I’ll be sharing my coffee liqueur recipe and technique.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope it is a full and good one for you! The peaches look absolutely delicious!

I’m 36.5 and still get zits regularly. My mother got them as long as she menstruated so until her fifties. I guess that’s what I can look forward to.

Happy Birthday from a fellow Leo – I’ll have to ditto pimple comments from above. Except why do the ones on your butt hurt more than the ones on your face??
Great looking cobbler, my organic peaches are supposed to be available this weekend – I can’t wait. Good excuse to try your crisp recipe.

I just finished eating the last of the apple crisp we made earlier this week. I enjoyed it for your birthday! I’ve never heard of using corn meal in a crisp topping. Is this your own recipe?

Happy Belated Birthday , from another Leo. I celebrated my 47th on the 14th , and I still get pimples.
I’ve never made a crisp from cornmeal , but I plan to try your recipe. It looks delish.

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes everyone!
Willow – the recipe is a variation on another I saw somewhere. The original had much less cornmeal and more flour, it also had toasted pine nuts in the topping. Pine nuts are just something I don’t generally have on hand, so I figured I could up the cornmeal for added crunch.

Very interesting! I just got some nectarines and peaches (free) at the farmers market. Maybe I’ll try your crisp topping. I usually use whole wheat flour and oats with brown sugar and butter for the topping.

I’ve been sitting here trying to remember what I was doing when I turned 34! Heck, I can’t remember what I was doing when I turned 41, and that was LAST year!
I miss you, and I love you!
Nice peaches, by the way!
