Peach Pie Bars

I can't believe it is already July! Summer is just flying by for us. I hope you are enjoying the HOT weather. Here is a recipe for Peach Pie Bars. I made these a couple weeks ago and am just now getting around to post. These are wonderful!

Peach Pie Bars

Ingredients:

Crust:

3 c flour

1 c sugar

1 t baking powder

1/4 t salt

1 c COLD unsalted butter

1 egg, lightly beaten

Filling:

5 c diced peaches

2 T lemon juice

1/2 c flour

1 c sugar

1/4 t salt

1/2 t cinnamon

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9x13 baking pan.

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, b.powder and salt. Use a pastry blender (or your kitchen aid with the paddle) to cut in the butter and the egg. The dough will be very crumble. Press half the dough into the pan.

For the filling Place the peaces in a large bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice. In another bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, salt and cinnamon. Pour over the peaces and gently mix.

Spread the filling over the crust. Crumble the remaining crust mixture over the peach mixture.

Bake for about 45 minutes until the top is lightly browned. Allow to cool before cutting into squares.

Enjoy!
