Apple and Peach Crisp

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups tart apples, cored and sliced

  • 3 cups peaches, pitted, peeled and sliced

  • 1/3 cup sugar

  • 1 Tbs fresh lemon juice

  • Zest from ½ lemon

  • 2 Tbs flour

Topping

  • 2/3 cup flour

  • 1/3 cup corn meal

  • 2/3 cup sugar

  • ¼ tsp cinnamon

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • ½ cup solidified coconut oil (or cold, unsalted butter)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  2. Mix the apples, peaches, sugar, lemon juice and zest together in a bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes.

  3. After 10 minutes, check the amount of juice in the bottom of the bowl. If a lot of juice has accumulated, mix in 2 Tbs flour. If there is not much juice, mix in less.

  4. Pour into an 8”x10” baking dish.

  5. To make the topping, put the dry ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse till mixed. Take off the lid and scatter pieces of solidified coconut oil or butter over the mix. Pulse repeatedly until the mixtures looks like breadcrumbs. (You can also do this in a regular old bowl with a your fingers or a fork.)

  6. Spread the topping over the fruit, and smooth evenly with your hands.

  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the apples are tender and the juices bubble up through the streusel.

  8. Remove from oven, and cool before serving, if you can wait.
