Thankfully, we have a bouncer and a cradle swing that keeps her entertained. This mommy needed a little bit of cooking therapy to help ease away the mommy woes. I had just enough time to prep this easy to prepare peach blueberry crumble for dinner which really took less than 10 minutes to prep. Peaches are in season right now, and I have been using them in all my dishes. My irresistible slow cooked pork with peach BBQ sauce, and refreshing peach lemonade and now this scrumptious peach blueberry crumble.
With the insane heat waves we are experiencing right now, you might be reluctant to turn the oven on for anything. However, you might be willingly to break a sweat just for a tiny bit to indulge in this fabulous sweet treat. The sweet peaches combined with the tart blueberries make for a fantastic summery dessert. This peach blueberry crumble totally made me forget my mommy woes and blissfully happy for summer days.
