Cherry, Orange, and Coconut Crisp Tutorial
I've never really been a fan of cobblers and crisps, but my husband grew up eating cobblers, and he loves them. As a surprise for him on his first day back to work after an 11-day Christmas vacation, I made him my first ever crisp. As usual, I started with a basic recipe and subtracted some things and added some more to make my version of, what I think, is the best crisp EVER. My husband would probably agree to that, but his mother makes great cobblers and crisps, and well, you have to choose your battles sometimes and this is one battle he's not interested in creating.
