Triple Delight Fruit Crisp

This is a recipe I (Gr. Barb) created out of my fondness for Apple Crisp. Why not, I reasoned, add yet more flavor to Apple Crisp, especially when you have other fruits you need to use up, because of freezer burn, natural over-ripeness, etc. So!I used up three fruits with one recipe....

TRIPLE DELIGHT FRUIT CRISP Oven 350 deg. baking time - approx. 45 min.

In a 9x13" pan, place about 2 cups each of cut-up apples, rhubarb, & peaches, arranging as evenly as possible. Over them, sprinkle about 1 teasp. cinnamon & 1/2-1 cup of sugar, depending on whether or not you like a tart flavor. Over the fruits & spices, spread the topping, which is mixed like pie crust (do not use a mixer):
1 1/2 cups br. sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup soft butter
Bake, checking after about 30 min., until the fruits are starting to bubble & the outside edges of the topping start getting darkish brown. Ideally, serve while warm, although the flavors make it good anytime, crisp or not. Some like whipped cream, 1/2 and 1/2, or ice cream as toppings over the topping.

You perhaps noticed my penchant for non-absolute terms (about, as evenly as possible, depending on, etc. ) Kind of like the world of medicine in that regard (although I would like that world to contain only absolutes, so you can see I'm totally out of the world of reality on that score).

I know for a fact that this is delicious. I would like credit for properly identifiying the 3 fruits involved in a blind tasting, even though I guessed them in pairs.

How ingenious! Keep up the good work Grandma Barb. I don't know if I'll try to make this myself though. Leave it to the pros, that's what I say.
