Fresh Peach Crisp

Peach Crisp (3 of 5)

My mom’s birthday was this past weekend and she asked for a fruity dessert that didn’t have a ton of sugar, so I went in search of something that could utilize the delicious peaches that I got from the farmer’s market.  I found this recipe that uses granola & oats in the topping which gave a nice crunchy and sweet topping that I really loved.  This dish was comforting and summery all at the same time.  I bet it would be great with apples too. And it was sweet without being overly sugary or rich.

Also, I want to thank all of you for your sweet comments on my giveaway post.  I read every one and each of you truly mean the world to me! The winner was chosen randomly using Rafflecopter. The winner is entry #191, Meghan M. and I have sent you an email! If I haven’t gotten a response by Friday, July 12, I will choose another winner. Now onto the recipe:
