FRUIT CRISP TOPPING

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. With a food processor, pastry blender or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture just until it comes together and large clumps form. Fold nuts into the mixture. Chill until ready to use.
• Cook's Note: Crisp topping can be refrigerated up to a week or frozen for up to 2 months.

• Raspberry-Peach Crisp: Peel 5 large peaches and slice into wedges. Combine with 1 1/2 cups raspberries, 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest, and 1/3 cup sugar. Top the mixture with crisp topping.
• Cranberry-Pear Crisp: Peel, core, and dice 4 large pears. Combine with 1 cup cranberries, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1/3 cup sugar. Top the mixture with crisp topping.

HOMEMADE POTATO CRISPS

Steps:

• Pour the vegetable oil into a plastic sandwich or freezer bag. Add the potato slices, and toss to coat.
• Coat a large dinner plate lightly with oil. Arrange potato slices in a single layer on the dish.
• Cook in the microwave for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned (if not browned, they will not become crisp). Times will vary depending on the power of your microwave. Remove chips from plate, and toss with salt (or other seasonings). Let cool. Repeat process with the remaining potato slices. You will not need to keep oiling the plate.
• If you want salt and vinegar; soak the raw potatoes in vinegar (cider/malt/red wine vinegar - all work well and produce different flavours) for 15-20 minutes for the best flavor. The potatoes may start to turn brown, but don't worry - they'll turn brown after they cook anyway.
