Peach Cherry Crisps

Peach and Cherry Crisps

Peaches and cherries…this combination has summer written all over it.  There is nothing like a fresh ripe peach picked right off the tree or snacking on a bowl of sweet red cherries.  I am a big fan of fresh fruit in the summer.  It is very refreshing especially because there are so many seasonal options that only last for a couple months.  At their peak, peaches are naturally sweet and make delicious summer desserts without having to add a lot of sugar.

Peach picking

Last summer, my husband George and I visited a local farm to pick peaches.  Tractors pulling large wagons dropped us off in fields of peach trees.  We had a relaxing afternoon walking through the groves and picking peaches (and of course snacking on them too!).  It was such a fun day and we went home with a full bushel of peaches.  We gave some to neighbors and had plenty to snack on and even froze bags of sliced peaches, but I was also excited to experiment with creating peach desserts!  I love crisps and tend to make them primarily in the fall.  But I thought why not create a summer crisp.

Peach picking

After playing around with flavors, peach and cherries were the winners.  YUM!  Cinnamon and sugar provide additional flavor to the filling.  The crisp topping also has cinnamon but is complimented with coconut and nutmeg.

Peach and Cherries

These individuals crisps can also be made into one large crisp.  I find that the individual sizes, however, are prettier for entertaining.  The red sweet cherries compliment the yellow peaches.  You can also substitute with golden Rainer cherries.  Adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the warm crisp is a delicious addition. Any leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Peach and Cherry Crisps

Peaches and cherries are in season through August so, now is the perfect time to start making these crisps.  Enjoy!  I think another trip to the farm may be in store for us.

⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: To check for cake doneness, use the bounce-back test.  Gently press down on the cake.  If an indentation is left in the cake, then it needs more time.  If it bounces back, then it's fully baked.  You will also notice that the sides of the cake begin to pull away from the pan.⁠

Almond cream is such a versatile recipe that's per Almond cream is such a versatile recipe that's perfect for holiday baking.  It can be used for filling pastries like croissants, topping sliced brioche and baking until golden brown, or filling an unbaked tart shell, adding fruit, and baking until set.  Almond cream will become your best friend when creating impressive desserts for your family and friends.  Recipe link in bio!⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip:  If you'd like to make this cream with another nut flour, substitute half of the almond flour with your choice of nut flour.  You will still benefit from using almond flour while also using a stronger flavored nut.⁠
