Instructions
Creating Heavenly Summer Peach Bars can be a delightful experience if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Make Crust Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and half of the granulated sugar. Beat until well blended.
3. Add Eggs: Incorporate the eggs one at a time into the butter-sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and remaining sugar. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
5. Spread Crust: Take about two-thirds of the batter, flatten it, and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
6. Add Peaches: Arrange the sliced peaches evenly over the crust layer.
7. Top with Remaining Batter: Scoop and dollop the remaining batter on top of the peaches. It doesn’t need to cover completely; some peach will peek through.
8. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool Bars: Remove from the oven and let the bars cool in the pan for about 15 minutes.
10. Cut and Serve: Once cool enough to handle, cut into squares and serve.
Following these steps will ensure your Heavenly Summer Peach Bars are not only simple to make but absolutely delicious!
