An old-fashioned recipe that doesn’t go out of style. Warm sun-ripened peaches blended with freshly grated ginger, topped with a crumbly crust and served with homemade vanilla ice cream.
Serves 6-8. (Makes 8 small ramekins.)
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
First, prepare the topping:
Combine
- 1 1/3 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3 Tbsp sugar
- 3 Tbsp Demerara or brown sugar
- zest of one lemon
- 1/2 cup melted butter
Mix until clumpy, then refrigerate.
Next, prepare the filling.
- 5 ripe organic peaches, thinly sliced. (Peaches are on the Dirty Dozen list, so be sure to use organic ones if you don’t grow them yourself.)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp.freshly grated ginger root
- 3 Tbsp flour
Toss together gently.
Divide the filling evenly among the 8 ramekins. Top with the crumble topping. Place on a baking tray and bake at 375 degrees fo 30 minutes. Serve with ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

Wow, this looks delish!!! Must try this when Dave,Erika and the grandbabies arrive this weekend. What is the Dirty Dozen list
It was really yummy. I prepared it completely, then covered and refrigerated it overnight. I popped it in the oven when we sat down to dinner so it was warm for dessert. The Dirty Dozen is a list of the fruits and vegetables that you should try to buy organic (if you don’t grow your own like you do!) because of high pesticide residues. This list below also includes a list of the “Clean 15″–those you don’t have to worry about so much.
