Description
These bars take me back to lazy Sunday afternoons at my aunt’s kitchen table, where peaches were always in season and every bite felt like a hug. This recipe wraps ripe, juicy peaches in a buttery crust and creamy filling—just the way she made it. Share them with someone who could use a little sunshine today.
Ingredients
For the Crust and Topping:
2 ½ cups (350 g) all-purpose flour
⅔ cup (140 g) granulated sugar
½ tsp salt
1 ¼ cups (280 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar (preferably dark)
For the Peach Filling:
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
¼ cup (35 g) all-purpose flour
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
5 cups chopped, peeled peaches (about 7–8 peaches)
6 Tbsp (90 ml) heavy cream
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch pan or line with parchment.
Make the crust/topping: Mix flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Reserve 1½ cups for topping.
Press remaining mixture into the bottom of your pan. Bake 12–15 minutes, until lightly golden.
Peach filling: In a bowl, mix sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Add chopped peaches, cream, and vanilla. Stir gently.
Pour peach filling over the warm crust. Sprinkle with reserved crumble topping.
Bake for 45–50 minutes, until bubbly and golden.
Cool completely before slicing into bars.
Notes
Sweet, creamy, and a little crumbly—these bars are the comfort dessert we all need from time to time. Try them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a real treat.
