Fresh Roasted Peaches With Oatmeal Crumble Topping
Summer is here and one of my favorite activities to do with my kitchen helper is to travel to our local orchard to pick seasonal fruit. The peach season was destroyed due to a late frost in 2016 so I was especially excited to pick peaches this year. Roasting peaches in the oven is simple and enhances the sweet flavor. The addition of the oatmeal crumble provides a crunchy texture and transform a simple fruit into a great summer dessert.
The crumble used for this recipes is actually one of my kitchen helpers favorite cookies and has been featured on Make & Taste before. The Oatmeal Coconut Lace cookie recipe bakes in five minutes and is easy to mix up in a single bowl. Any kitchen helper will enjoy pouring the oatmeal, coconut flakes and palm sugar, just to name a few. So if you are looking for an easy and delicious recipe to make with your kids this summer, this is the one to try.
