These Heavenly Summer Peach Bars are a delightful treat that perfectly captures the essence of summer. With a buttery crust, sweet peach filling, and crumbly topping, these bars are a must-try for any peach lover.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust and Topping:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

For the Peach Filling:

  • 3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ¼ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Mix the Dough: Add eggs and vanilla extract to the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Press two-thirds of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  4. Prepare the Peach Filling: Toss diced peaches with cornstarch and brown sugar. Spread the peach mixture over the crust.
  5. Add the Topping: Crumble the remaining dough over the peach layer. Bake for 35 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can sprinkle some cinnamon or nutmeg on top for extra flavor.
  • These bars are best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
