Peach and Nectarine Crisp

I couldn’t resist when I saw fresh donut peaches and white nectarines at the local produce stand.  I love fruit forward desserts with a light topping.  This was so good I wish I had made a bigger dish.

Ingredients:

3 donut peaches peeled and diced (or other fresh peach)

3 white or yellow nectarines peeled and diced

Zest from ½ lemon; 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Topping:

½ cup all-purpose flour

½ cup old fashioned oats

¼ cup light brown sugar

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons extra-virgin coconut oil

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 
2. Peel and dice peaches and nectarines over a 8×8 dish.  Spread out fruit in the dish mixing the peaches and nectarines.  If the fruits are really ripe the skin should peel off easily if you cut in half around the pit. 
3. Sprinkle lemon zest and juice over fruit.
4. Sprinkle maple syrup over fruit.
5. Add flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and coconut oil to a food processor.  Pulse to mix.
6. Sprinkle topping over the fruit.
7. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
8. Remove foil.  Bake for 30 more minutes.
