Peach and raspberry crisp

Lets do some math peach+raspberry=amazing I love warm desserts. The crisp on top gives it some great texture and flavor. This is amazing with the vanilla ice cream because you eat this warm and the ice cream melts into it and it soaks the crisp part on top and it combines and it is amazing.This is a great end to a delightful delicious dinner and perfect in the fall.The juices from the fruit make kinda a sauce and it is amazing. The raspberry gets all bubbly and and makes this really cool texture that like dances on your tongue. The crisp has a buttery flour kinda taste which is what a crisp should taste like and it is my favorite part of this whole thing for sure. This recipe uses a little orange zest ans juice which you can't taste when it is cooked so it will not take away from the peaches or raspberry's . I love peach and raspberry together and in a warm desert with a crisp for some texture i give it 11 out of 10 stars. So enjoy your amazing warm dessert and well,ENJOY.
