Apricot Cherry Crisp
Modified from a recipe in a pike place market basket newsletter. Apricots and cherries have been fabulous in washington this summer and this recipe is quick, easy and very yummy. Like all crisps and cobblers, this is very flexible. Blackberries or blueberries can be substituted for cherries, and peaches can be substituted for apricots (i add some cornstarch when using peaches as they generate more juices than apricots).
