peach crumble skillet
i LOVE peaches! and as much as i love peaches, i have one very lonely peach recipe on my website which is my moist peach streusel cake. so, i need to change that quickly! it was guy's nite again and i planned to use a bag of peaches that we had in the freezer. 'peach crumble' hit me like a ton of bricks. aren't crumbles the best? the fruit gets all soft, caramelized and velvety. but we can't forget, perhaps the most amazing part of the crumble... the crunchy crust. it soaks up some of the juice from the fruit and oh my. lol. magic happens. heaven on a plate. it's amazing how the simplest desserts, taste the absolute best! and a scoop of vanilla ice-cream on top, to melt over the warm crumble, is the icing on the doggone cake. 🙂
