Healthy Snack

So I decided to throw caution to the wind and have another go of canning peaches this year. I guess I did learn lessons from last year, because things have gone pretty well so far.

One of the recipes I'm making with the peaches is Peach Crunch. It was created and made famous by a woman in my ward who is the ultimate Pioneer Woman. Seriously she could probably be self-sufficient for years. She is amazing. So here is her recipe for Peach Crunch. It's a great healthy snack

-Fresh peaches- skinned and halved (Use the bruised peaches)

-about 1/2 tsp almond flavoring

-2 Tbsp honey (more if the peaches aren't real sweet)

-3 tsp frozen pineapple concentrate

Put in a blender and blend until smooth (mine is a 5 cup blender). Fill up to within 2-3 inches of the top. Puree. As blender is running, add 3/4 cup raw sunflower seeds and blend 5 seconds (just long enough to break up sunflower seeds a little). Pour into a 2-3 quart bowl and stir in 1 1/2 to 2 cups unsweetened coconut. Pour out on leather sheets and dry until crisp. Takes about 12 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Store in airtight containers. Note: wipe leather sheets with a little "Pam" so Peach Crunch comes off sheets easier.

Here's what it looks like after it's dried and broken up into edible pieces:


Try it, you may just become addicted. And a side note: I don't put the pineapple concentrate in and it still tastes great.
