The peaches were a gift from my cute neighbor in my new neighborhood. As soon as she brought them over I knew I wanted to make a peach crisp; that made it easier to pick a recipe from the hundreds (thousands?) of recipes available on the two websites.
Peach Crisp
4 med. peaches, sliced (about 3 c.) or 2 cans (16 oz. each) sliced peaches, drained
3/4 c. Bisquick baking mix
1/2 c. quick cooking oats
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
3 tbsp. margarine or butter, softened
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

Now, I'm the type of person who is a sucker for things with problems--the stuffed animal with the wierd-shaped face that no one will want to buy, the otherwise perfect apple with a little bruise--so when I saw this very sad recipe I knew I'd have to make it. I'm a fairly good cook, and I figured I'd be able to come up with some redeeming instructions.
To save the recipe, I changed a few things: I make my own pancake mix, so I substituted my mix for the store mix; I added sugar and flour to the peaches so they would be juicy but not runny; I used regular oats because that's what I had; I took the "margarine" option out of the ingredient list--trans fats and all that. What I ended up with was quite scrumptious, and we gobbled it up after dinner. In fact, my husband just wanted it for his dinner :) Enjoy!

2. In a medium bowl, combine the pancake mix, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg; stir to combine them well.
