Adapted from Nick's Bar & Fish House, New Buffalo, Michigan (published in Bon Appetit, August 2010). Serve with vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients:
6 large peaches, peeled, halved, pitted, each half cut into 6 wedges (about 3 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup amaretto
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated orange zest
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 cup toffee pieces (such as skor)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 1/2 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Directions:
1. In large bowl, combine peaches, sugar, amaretto, orange juice, orange zest, and lemon zest. Toss to coat. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes, tossing occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F
3. Place toffee bits, pecans, flour, and butter in a food processor. Using on/off turns, process topping until moist clumps form.
4. Divide peach mixture among six 1 1/4-cup ramekins. Place ramekins on baking sheet. Sprinkle topping over peaches in ramekins, dividing equally.
5. Bake crisps until juices bubble thickly and topping is crisp, about 1 hour.
6. Cool slightly. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
