Blackberry Peach Crisp

Deep depression sets in three times a year for me.  January, when I eat my last chocolate turtle.  March, when I eat my last Arizona orange and October, when I eat my last Peach of the season.
I LOVE peaches.  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!  I eat at least 5 a day.  I put them on my oatmeal, my pancakes, in salads, in salsa…EVERYTHING.
I’m especially fond of them in desserts.  I love combining peaches and Willard Bay Blackberries.  The combination is so fabulous in crisps, crumbles and cobblers.  
I decided that I would make individual Blackberry Peach Crisps today and top it with a crumble made with Biscoff cookies.  I wanted to use Amaretti cookies, but my stores were completely out or didn’t carry them. What’s up with that.  I knew I could get them from an Italian market, but that would be a 40 minute trip.  So Biscoff it is.  I must admit I really liked the flavor combined with the peaches.
For the filling you will need:
6 large ripe peaches
1 cup blackberries
1/3 cup sugar
3 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons butter

For the topping you will need:
3/4 cup flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
16 Biscoff of Speculoos cookies
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup cold butter
and 6 half pint canning jars, ramekins or 9 x 13 baking dish
Peel and pit the peaches.
Cut into 1-inch pieces.
Put sliced peaches into a large bowl.
Wash the blackberries.
Add blackberries to peaches.
Add the cornstarch to the sugar.
Mix together.
Sprinkle the sugar mixture on top of the fruit.
Gently stir.  Set fruit mixture aside.

In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, add the flour and brown sugar.

Add sugar.
Add Biscoff cookies.
One teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Pulse the ingredients together.
It’s ok if there are some cookies bits left.
Cut up the cold butter.

Add to the cookie mixture and pulse several times.
Pulse until the mixture holds together when pressed.
Carefully spoon fruit mixture into jars or whatever you have decided to bake your crisp in.
I like to fill my jars quite full because the fruit will shrink as it bakes.
Divide the two tablespoons of butter and dot each jar of fruit with the butter.
The butter probably isn’t necessary, but I love how it melts and gives the fruit a buttery taste.

Mound as much of the crumble topping as you can on top of the fruit filling.
I placed the jars on a baking sheet lined with parchment.  I’m almost positive the juices are going to spill over.  That’s what I’m hoping for.
Don’t worry the fruit will shrink down a bit.  You will still have room for a scoop of ice cream.
I had a little of the crumble left over.  I can’t believe I ate it with a spoon.  What was I thinking?
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 25 minutes.  If you are baking in a larger 9 x 13-inch dish you will probably need to bake for 30-35 minutes.
When the topping is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, remove from the oven.
You can let it cool a bit or just grab a spoon and dig in…like I did.
I love how colorful blackberries with the orange peaches.  Perfect combination.
If you will excuse me I have some homemade honey vanilla ice cream in my freezer.  I’m going enjoy the peach season to it’s fullest.  I just can’t stand the thoughts of it ending.  I’m getting depressed already.
I better eat another one.

This is a very quick version of Christmas Stollen This is a very quick version of Christmas Stollen flavored bread. The sweet dough is filled with dried fruit, candied orange and lemon peel, and almonds. 

The dough is wrapped around a ribbon of marzipan filling. Bake until golden then dust heavily with powder sugar. 

I like to toast a thick slice then scoop out the warm marzipan and spread it all over my toasted Stollen 🤤

Biscotti literally means “twice baked”, and do Biscotti literally means “twice baked”, and double baking is the secret to these crunchy Italian cookies. Their hard texture makes them perfect for dipping into your hot drink. 

Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti are my favorite and I add them to my Christmas cookie list because they make such a cute gift, but most of all I love dipping them in my cocoa.

According to my DNA testing I’m only 5% Norwegian. Im going with that as an excuse to bake at least 7 types of cookies. 

Top on my list is this adorable 
Norwegian Berlinerkranser. 

This cute little cookie from my childhood is buttery with a hint of orange. 🤤 I can’t have a Christmas without these cute little cookies. 

How many types of cookies are you baking this year?
