Peach Crisp for One

It's recipe time and today I grabbed some ingredients to make a Peach Crisp for One recipe card. Fresh Colorado peaches will arriving in the big trucks soon. I'll be sure to buy a couple boxes so I make some peachy creations. This Peach Crisp for One is a favorite recipe because it's easy to make and delicious. My girls can easily make this recipe....we usually assemble four of these so the whole family can have a yummy dessert. Vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt increases the yummo factor immensely! :)

I'm using Karen Lockhart's cute peaches in a jar stamp, patterned papers from Sassafras Lass, Papertrey Vintage Buttons and twine, Martha Stewart string and Papertrey's loopy circle from Borders and Corners Circles and the word *peach* from Papertrey's First Fruits. The fonts I used for my recipe card can be found at the left side bar. Recipe card measures 4" x 6".I printed my recipe onto white cardstock and used the pretty patterned papers for the background. The printed recipe block determines how many embellishments I can add to my recipe card. I usually don't have a plan, I just fit little doodads here and there.
The jar of peaches is actually one single jar. I used Eclipse Masking Tape to mask off the top jar of peaches and then stamped the second jar so it looks like it's behind the first jar. I colored my images with Copic Sketch markers. The fun notched ribbon snippet is Papertrey Melon Berry Bitty Dot ribbon and was stitched on with my sewing machine and white thread.
For the bottom of my recipe card, I used some fun scraps of patterned paper to create a punched scalloped border (from Fiskars). Vintage Buttons tied with twine finish off the recipe card.
Here's the recipe for you to copy/print:

Peach Crisp for One

1 cup sliced peaches 2 teaspoons regular oats
2 teaspoons flour 2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons light butter

Place 1 cup sliced peaches in a 10 ounce custard cup coated with cooking spray. Combine oats, flour, brown sugar and light butter. Crumble over peaches. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. From Weight Watchers Annual Recipes for Success 2003 cookbook. 4 points.

Mish, you're my hero! I took the kids peach picking yesterday with my mom and sister; we spent all afternoon in the kitchen preparing the peaches and freezing them. (I don't do canning. That's too scary for me.) Besides the little containers for the kids' lunches, we freeze them in quarts--so perfect size for a batch of these crisps! Seriously, though I often lurk and don't comment much, yours is my go-to blog for inspiration and a much-needed perspective break at times. So thanks.
