There’s nothing like soft, fresh, dripping down your chin – juicy, sweet peaches baked in a simple crust to make me swoon. During peach season I often find myself walking through the kitchen picking up these tender, fuzzy fruits and inhaling the sweet aroma. I also dream about making these wonderful Peach Crumble Bars.

Instructions

For the crust:

Step 1

In a medium bowl whisk together 1 cup of sugar, 3 cups flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Using a pastry cutter, blend in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Add the lightly beaten egg and mix until the dough starts to hold together, but is still crumbly. Gently press a little more than half the dough into the prepared pan.

For the peach mixture:

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl whisk together the sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Add the diced peaches and toss to combine. Drizzle the lemon juice over the peaches and toss to coat. Pour the peach mixture over the crust and spread evenly.

Step 3

Using your hands, press together handfuls of the remaining crumb topping to create clumps. Scatter the clumps and remaining crumbled topping over the fruit layer leaving some peaches showing through.

Step 4

If using a glass pan, bake at 350°F degrees for 50-55 minutes or until lightly browned. If using a metal pan, bake at 375°F degrees for 40-45 minutes. Cool completely then chill before cutting
