stovetop peach crisp...sort of

Every once in a while one of my experiments turns out yummy enough that I want to be sure to write it down. while I'm still eating it. between bites. so good.

In an attempt to ease out of my sugar addiction I have let me supply of chocolate chips, peanut butter, and marshmallows all run out.  In an attempt to make sure my super cute interview clothes fit when I get around to needing them, I have started counting WW points plus again. Between the points I had left and the stuff I had in the kitchen, stove top peach crisp is where I landed.

Have I mentioned that peach season is one of my favorite times in NC?  They are finally getting good, like fall apart good, and cheap. I will be eating them A LOT for the few weeks that they are really good.

What I used: (1 serving)
1 very ripe peach (it was actually a little bruised, they are so delicate, but that didn't hurt anything)
a few shakes of cinnamon
a few drops of vanilla
1 1/2 tsp. butter
1 tbsp. packed brown sugar
1/3 cup quick oats

What I did:
1. Peel the peach, then slice it thinly.  Put on the stove top in a small pan, sprinkle with cinnamon, and cook until they start to get a little juicy and sizzly (before all that juice cooks away). Dump these into a bowl.

2. Melt butter in the pan (don't bother to rinse it between), stir in sugar just until all the sugar is "wet", then throw in the oats.  Stir/crop/mash this all together. I was using a wood spatula and kept sort of chopping and flipping everything around.  Continue until everything is toasty.  I ended up with lots of loose oats and lots of very small butter/sugar/oat clumps.  Sprinkle with some more cinnamon and give it another good stir or two.  Feel free to taste this and adjust or continue cooking as needed.

3. Pour/shake topping over the warm, juicy peaches. Enjoy!

I'm telling you folks, I don't do sophisticated food but I do try to keep it both delicious and simple to make!  I would imagine a little low fat ice cream would have been good with this, if I was the low fat ice cream eating type ;)
