Ingredients

4 cups thinly-sliced peeled peaches

1 can juice-pack pineapple tidbits - (8 oz) undrained

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon quick-cooking tapioca

1/2 cup quick-cooking oats

1/4 cup brown sugar - (packed)

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Ice cream (optional)

Preparation

Combine the peaches, pineapple, the 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and tapioca in a medium bowl. Spoon into an 8- by 8- by 2-inch metal baking or foil pan; set aside.

Combine the oats, the 1/4 cup brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg in another bowl. Cut in butter or margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; sprinkle over fruit mixture. Cover pan tightly with foil.

Grill about 50 minutes or until mixture is hot and bubbly. Serve warm, with ice cream, if desired.

This recipe yields 8 servings.

Comments: Fresh peaches and canned pineapple are topped with a spiced oat mixture and cooked on the grill. If you can't get ripe, fragrant fresh peaches, substitute frozen or canned.
