I am a dessert girl.  Growing up, my father always wanted dessert after a meal.  It is engrained in me to crave a bit of sweet to finish a meal – I take after him.  Sometimes I am able to resist temptation, but most of the time, I give in.

On a recent trip to Nashville, I stopped by the Franklin Farmers Market and picked up some peaches from The Peach Truck.  Although perfect for eating just as they were, I decided to make a raw peach crisp to satisfy my craving for dessert.

Raw Peach Crisp

Serves: 2

Prep: just enough time to cut peaches, measure ingredients, and combine in the blender!

Ingredients:

• 4 peaches, sliced
• 1/2c pecans
• 1 Tbs cinnamon
• 1 Tbs millet
• 1 Tbs oat groats
• 1 Tbs raw honey

1. Wash and slice peaches into bite size pieces.
2. Combine the next 5 ingredients in a blender and pulse until almost ground – a crumb like consistency.
3. Divide peaches into two bowls and pour topping over them.

This recipe is heavy on cinnamon – the way I like it – but feel free to cut back as desired.  Enjoy!…Virginia
