Peach Buckle

 I had peaches that were getting too ripe and 

decided to cook them up before I lost them.

A "Buckle" is an old fashioned dessert. 

A cross between a cake-like cobbler, 

a crisp and a fruit crumble. 

 A simple dessert  to use with any

 Summer fruit, and delicious to eat.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter

3 or 4 ripe peaches, washed and sliced 1/4 thick.

1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp. granulated sugar

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

a pince of salt.

1 cup Unsweetened Almond milk.

(Other milk, dairy milk may be used also),

Directions:

Preheat over to 350deg. F

Place the 1/2 cup butter in a baking dish 

and place in the oven to melt while the

oven is preheating.

Slice peaches approx. 1/4 inches slices, 

with skin on and discarding the pit.

Place peaches in a medium bowl 

and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of sugar.

In another bowl, whisk together flour, 

baking powder and salt and 1/2 cup sugar.

Whisk in the milk and melted butter.

Pour into baking dish and top with peaches.

Sprinkle with cinnamon.

Bake  50 - 55 minutes,

until top is browned and a toothpick

 inserted in centre comes out clean.

Serve warm or at room temperature with

whipped cream, or ice cream.

Raspberry Jam

A quick and easy jam to make.

We went picking raspberries at 

a U-Pick near home,

with family and friends. 

Raspberry season goes by fast,

it's only a few weeks in August.

I made this delicious Raspberry Jam 

Ingredients

6 cups Raspberries

3 cups Sugar.

2 tsp. lemon juice

Combine raspberries,

 sugar and lemon juice, in a large pot. 

Mash together with a potato masher.

Bring to boiling, stirring occasionally 

until sugar dissolves. 

Simmer for another 10 minutes, or until

 jam is brought to the jelly point.

(Pour a small amount of jam on a cold plate 

and transfer to freezer, for 2 to 3 minutes.

If mixture gels, it is ready. If not, return and

cook longer.)

Do a taste test to see if it is sweet enough.

I like mine tart.

Pour into hot sterilized jars and seal.
