Fresh Peach Crisp

I had four peaches waiting to be eaten on my kitchen counter. There has not been any takers for three days now, so I decided to make this peach crisp. I can't tell you how good it tastes..trust me it's GOOD! I am a big fruit crisp fan so this was a delightful evening treat for me. See Recipe below. I have used this recipe over and over for many years. I cut it out of a Taste of Home Magazine years ago. It was a Midwest blue ribbon winner at the fair. It's proven itself over and over again to be a very GOOD tasting crisp. I hope you will give the recipe a try!
