20-minute peach crisp
3 yellow peaches
1/2 cup granola of your choice. i suggest a simple mix with nuts rather than dried fruit.
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon butter, cut into 6 pieces
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (optional)
1. pre-heat the oven to 350°f.
2. cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. with a grapefruit spoon or paring knife, cut a small hollow from the center of each half to make room for the topping.
3. place the peach halves skin side down in a small casserole or baking dish in which all the halves fit snugly. spoon an equal amount of granola into each peach half. pour the maple syrup and sprinkle the nutmeg and cinnamon evenly over the peaches as well. put 1 piece of butter on top of each half.
8. bake at 350° for 15 minutes, or until the peach is soft but still holds its shape. then increase the oven temperature to broil and bake for another 3-5 minutes, or until the granola becomes golden brown. remove from the oven and serve, with ice cream or whipped cream if you wish.
