Hotter than hot days call for cool, single serve treats: portable, pre-portioned, perfect when you want a quick dessert that serves just one or two. This week, peach crisp, the perennial summer dessert classic, takes cup form. It’s also no-bake and endlessly adaptable: try any stone fruit or berries in place of peaches, any nut in place of pecans, and any frozen yogurt or sorbet you like.
Peach Crisp in a Cup
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped pecans
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
Dash of ground cinnamon
Dash of salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup diced ripe peaches
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup low-fat frozen vanilla yogurt
1. Combine pecans, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add pecan mixture; cook 4 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally. Cool slightly.
2. Combine peaches, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook 5 minutes or until peaches just begin to break down, stirring occasionally. Cool slightly.
3. Spoon 1/4 cup frozen yogurt into a small mason jar. Top with half of pecan mixture and half of peach mixture. Repeat layers once. Top with fresh diced peaches, if desired. SERVES 1.
