These Dessert Bars
are Peachy Keen
Summer is a time of year when people can enjoy their pick
of fresh fruit at farm stands, supermarkets and other retailers.
Many fruit trees,
plants and bushes are ready
for harvest in the spring and
summer, meaning there’s no
limit to the number of delicious
recipes one can whip
up with these sweet offerings.
Peaches are a favorite ingredient
in many different types of desserts, from cobblers to pies.
But in this recipe for “Fresh Peach Crumble Bar,” peaches are
presented as a cross between a cake and cookie. Enjoy this recipe,

Fresh Peach Crumble Bars
Yield 20
Crust/Crumb topping:
1 cup granulated sugar
3 cups all-purpose fl our
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup unsalted butter cold, cut into cubes
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Peach layer:
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 large peaches, peeled and diced
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon milk (more or less for desired consistency)
1. Preheat oven to 350 F if using a glass pan or dark metal pan, or 375
F for a light metal pan. Lightly grease or spray a 13 x 9-inch baking
pan and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of sugar, 3 cups of fl our,
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. (Optional: Use a food processor to process these ingredients.)
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. If using a glass pan, bake at 350 F for 50 to 55 minutes or until
lightly browned. If using a metal pan, bake at 375 F for 40 to 45 minutes.
Cool completely, then chill before cutting and icing.
