I’m honored to be a special guest of Michelle over at her wonderful allergy-friendly blog The Willing Cook. She’s so graciously allowed me to share my personal journey with you – a path marked by God’s grace in leading me to a real food lifestyle that has resulted in a closer walk with Christ and positive health changes that have enable me to better serve Him, my family, my church and YOU!
If you’ve been curious about why I do what I do in providing free recipes, meal plans and resources for healthy real food living, then I encourage you to pop over today and check out my exclusive interview with The Willing Cook.
Of course, I couldn’t just pop over for a visit and pour out my heart without bringing something healthy and scrumptious to share as well. So, I’m happily sharing my favorite fruit crisp recipe, featuring glorious fresh summer peaches!
Growing up in the South, one of the highlights of summer was enjoying fresh seasonal peaches – so sweet and juicy! My affinity for these little fuzzy treats hasn’t changed, and so now I like to buy a couple of crates of ripe organic peaches each summer, so I can slice and freeze them for use all year long.
So in addition to this personal interview, I’m also sharing my special Berry Peachy Crisp recipe. It can be made using either fresh ripe peaches, or frozen ones. The addition of sweet and tangy raspberries really complements the mellow flavor of peaches, making this an extra special treat!
Joyfully Serving Him, Kelly

Okay this is perfect timing. I had some yummy apple crisp this weekend, but I felt guilty the entire time. Thanks for offering us a healthy alternative!!! Can’ wait to try it!
My pleasure, Darlene! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Thanks for taking time to leave a sweet note! Blessings, Kelly 🙂
Now I know why I love your recipes so much (besides the fact they are delicious)! You grew up in the South and I can relate to the flavors and recipes. It seems like everything you post is something I want to try. I still live in the South and I have to find that balance between eating “southern” and eating healthy. Not always the same thing for sure. Peach cobbler was a favorite dessert growing up, and this recipe looks like a perfect compromise w/out really compromising. 🙂 (doing a happy dance)
Thanks, ALicia! If there’s one great thing about the South it’s that most of us grow up with a love for cooking food from scratch. That’s a good thing for sure. Having an appreciation for cooking food from scratch has made it a lot easier to transform many of those favorite comforting dishes I grew up with into healthier versions that still taste great, but pack-in more nutritional value. Appreciate you leaving a note of encouragement! Hope you enjoy this peach crisp treat! Lots of blessings, Kelly 🙂
