Fresh Peach Crumble

Living in Georgia, peaches are everywhere during the summer! I was never a big peach eater until I tried fresh, in season peaches. It is such a huge difference eating a big fresh Georgia peach, than eating a little grocery store peach during the winter.  You need to buy peaches in season, and fresh if possible. I love going to farmers markets in the spring and summer, and in Georgia they are stocked with delicious peaches.  However, if you don’t live in a peach producing state, then head to places like Whole Foods and Trader Joes to get the most fresh produce you find.  Anyway, I had some extra peaches in the fridge and needed to use them up before they went bad, so I decided to make a peach cobbler.  It turned out more like a peach crumble (what is the difference anyway?!), and it was so delicious.  My usually fruit-hating husband even gobbled this down, and my picky eater toddler loved it as well. It was a huge hit and super easy!

If you only have a few peaches, or want a smaller portion, the recipe can definitely be sized down. This recipe makes a large serving, and if I were you I would make the whole thing because people are definitely going to want seconds.  Serve this warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and get ready to taste heaven!

This is a good recipe for kids to help with, too, because it really can’t be messed up and there is a lot of dumping ingredients into the dish!
