Peach Melba Crisp

When these two summertime fruits are out of season, try this crisp using apples or pears

with dried cherries or cranberries.

Makes 6 servings

nonstick cooking spray

1½ pounds ripe but still firm peaches, peeled, halved and pitted*

4 to 6 tablespoons granulated sugar, depending on sweetness of the fruit

2tablespoons instant tapioca 1½ tablespoons granulated sugar

1 cup fresh (or frozen, not in syrup) raspberries

¹⁄³

cup oatmeal (regular, not instant or quick)

¹⁄³

cup sliced almonds

3tablespoons unbleached, all-purpose flour

¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar

½ teaspoon powdered ginger

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon table salt

3tablespoons unsalted butter

Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Spray a shallow 8-cup baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

Insert the slicing disk. Use medium pressure to slice the peaches. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the 4-6 tablespoons of granulated sugar to taste, and the tapioca; toss gently to combine thoroughly. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the raspberries.

Insert the metal blade. Use the pulse to combine the 1½ tablespoons of granulated sugar, oats, nuts, flour, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, salt and unsalted butter. Pulse to chop the nuts and incorporate the butter, about 10 to 15 times. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the fruit. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until the peaches are bubbly and the topping is golden and crispy. Remove and let cool on a rack for 30 minutes before serving. Serve with whipped cream and vanilla ice cream.

*To peel peaches, cut a small “x” in the bottom of each peach. Blanch peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, and then plunge immediately into ice cold water. The skins should slip off easily.
