Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch salt
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon cold water
- 2–2 1/2 cups fresh peach slices
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Prepare an 8×8-inch baking pan with non-stick spray or parchment paper.
- For the crust and crumble, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using two forks or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in the egg yolk and cold water until combined. The dough will be crumbly.
- Press half of the crumble mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Set the remaining mixture aside for the topping.
- In a bowl, stir together peach slices, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons flour, 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla until combined.
- Spread the peach filling evenly over the crust in the pan.
- Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture over the top of the peach filling.
- Bake for 30–38 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Cool the bars completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
For best results, use ripe but firm peaches. If peaches are very juicy, you may want to increase the flour in the filling by 1 tablespoon. These bars can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days.
