Grandma 'drea's Peach Crisp

Submitted by Misses Wilson

"Once again I find myself in the sharing mood so I present to you Grandma 'Drea's recipe for crisp. I have always enjoyed my mothers crisps and have never been able to get the topping down til I finally asked for the recipe. She used this same basic recipe no matter what the fruit and my first one was half fresh peaches and half fresh nectarines and it was perfect! I hope you all enjoy it over the years as I grew up doing so!!"
