Ingredients
  

For the Shortbread Crust
  • 226 g Unsalted Butter Essential for a rich, buttery flavor and a tender texture in the crust.
  • 200 g Granulated Sugar Sweetens the crust and enhances the peach filling’s natural sweetness.
  • 375 g All-Purpose Flour Provides necessary structure to hold the chunky peaches.
For the Peach Filling
  • 900 g Fresh Peaches Ensure they are ripe and juicy for maximum flavor; substitute with thawed frozen peaches if needed.
  • 15 g Cornstarch Thicken the peach mixture for a perfect, jam-like consistency.
For the Oat Crumble Topping

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Peach Crumble Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cream together unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually mix in all-purpose flour to form a crumbly dough. Press about two-thirds of this mixture into a lined 9x9 inch pan and par-bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine diced peaches with sugar and cornstarch. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the mixture simmers and thickens. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  3. Spread the peach filling over the par-baked crust. In a bowl, combine the remaining shortbread mixture with rolled oats, then crumble this topping over the peach layer.
  4. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes until the topping is golden brown. Remove and let cool completely in the pan.
  5. Warm the honey in the microwave until runny. Drizzle it over the cooled bars for added sweetness.
  6. After cooling for at least two hours, lift the bars out using the parchment paper and cut into squares for serving.
