Nectarine, Plum and Blueberry Crisp

I love going to the farmer’s market on the weekend. It has locally-grown produce, baked goods, fresh kettle corn and other vendors selling jewelry, homemade soaps, and even plants and flowers.

It is located right next to a water park that is a great spot for kids and toddlers to run around and play on hot Summer days. There is a little old couple that sells freshly squeezed lemonade and it is amazing. They squeeze the lemons right in front of you, pour it over ice, add in simple syrup and a cherry on top – perfection!

This crisp is great to throw together with whatever fruit you may have on hand. I love stone fruit, and it is also great with apples and spices. I used some fresh nectarines and plums, and had my frozen blueberries ready and waiting.
