The name of this recipe says it all. Ripe summer peaches sprinkled with a touch of brown sugar and cinnamon, topped off with a layer of crunchy cookie crumbs and baked with a dot of butter until warm and bubbly. Any of your favorite store-bought or homemade cookies from the pantry will do here; I used a thin almond-pistachio cookie, but a gingersnap, oatmeal, or even crushed ladyfingers would work very well. My Peach-Cookie Crisp is a lovely way to enjoy the ripest peaches, nectarines or even apricots of the summer season. To gild the lily, serve this fruit crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or maybe a dollop of pillowy whipped cream.
