Peach Blueberry Slush Recipes

AUNT RAFFY'S PEACH AND BLUEBERRY CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the filling: Butter a 7-by-3-inch round baking dish and set aside. In a large bowl, toss together the sliced peaches, blueberries, lemon juice, sugar, arrowroot, vanilla and salt. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• For the topping: In a separate bowl, mix together the oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Using your hands, work the butter into the flour mixture until there are no longer any powdery ingredients at the bottom of the bowl. Break apart large pieces of the topping mixture and place on top of the fruit until the fruit mixture is almost entirely covered. Bake until the topping is golden brown and crispy and the fruit mixture is bubbling, about 40 minutes. Let cool for at least 20 minutes. Serve with the ice cream.

PEACH AND BLUEBERRY CRUMBLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Immerse the peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until their skins peel off easily. Place them immediately in cold water. Peel the peaches, slice them into thick wedges, and place them in a large bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and flour. Toss well. Gently mix in the blueberries. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes. Spoon the mixture into ramekins or custard cups.
• For the topping, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until the butter is the size of peas. Rub the mixture with your fingertips until it's in big crumbles, then sprinkle evenly over the fruit. Place the ramekins on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the tops are browned and crisp and the juices are bubbly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• If you want to make these early, store the unbaked crumbles in the refrigerator and bake before dinner.
