Don't hate me because I'm not a chocolate person. Don't get me wrong, the stuff is delicious, but I'd rather have a fruit dessert any day of the week. And this one goes out to all you Trader Joe's shoppers out there. It's more of a suggestion than a recipe, but you'll thank me.
Fill a baking dish with sliced nectarines, plums, and/or peaches. This is two of those little TJ's plastic baskets worth of nectarines in a 9x13 dish. I set out for plums, but nectarines were a happy substitution.
Toss them with a little flour (I used about 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour, but you could use another thickener if you want.) and maybe a little sugar (My fruit was on the tart side, so I used about 1/4 cup of raw sugar, but use a different sweetener if you want or leave it out altogether. If you want this to be sweet like a pie, add more like 3/4-1 cup sugar).
Get out your box of TJ's Ginger, Almond, & Cashew Granola. You can use another kind, but why would you? Stone fruit with two kinds of nuts and little chunks of crystallized ginger? HELL-OH! Dump the cereal on top of the fruit. Just do it, and don't be shy! Dot with butter. Or here, I used coconut oil to accommodate a friend with dairy allergies.
Bake it at 350 degrees until the top is browned and crispity, and the bottom is all bubbly, and your house smells like happy. This should take 40 minutes or so. Then stare at it as it cools.
OMNOMNOMNOMNOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
You are so welcome.
