Recipe: Peach Crisp



If you like peach’s, here’s another good seasonal recipe to try. It is easy to make and is delicious.

Peach Crisp

8 fresh peaches
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ginger
1 box yellow cake mix
1 stick butter (melted)
 1 small package pecans (brown sugar covered if you can find them)

Boil a large pot of water. Add peaches and leave in water for several minutes. Remove peaches from the boiling water and place in a large bowl of cold water to easily remove the peach skins. Slice the peaches in another bowl. Add the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger and stir. Spray a 13″ x 9″ pan with Pam cooking spray. Pour peach mixture in the pan and set aside. In a mixer, combine the yellow cake mix and melted butter, until crumbly. Sprinkle the mixture over the peaches. Top with the pecans. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Serve warm, or cold with Redi-wip, or vanilla ice cream.

Enjoy!
