Monthly Recipe: Spiced Peach Crumbled Bars

From Southern Living, “The 1 Peach Recipe You Have To Make Before Summer Ends. Our Spiced Peach Crumble Bars are the dessert of the season.

I thought I knew what a peach tasted like. Then, I moved to the South. There is truly nothing like the sort that grows down here. Juicy, sweet, but also bright and slightly tart, I could live without the humidity down here, but I suppose it’s a fair trade for such great stone fruit. 

If I’m honest, though, the peaches are usually so good I’m hardly tempted to bake with them. The most I might do is quickly caramelize a split half in a skillet and top it with soft whipped cream. That is, until I have too many on the counter and not enough time to enjoy them so simply. That’s when I get the oven preheating. 

Peach pie usually feels like too much fuss. Cobbler is delicious, but not something I crave often. But these Spiced Peach Crumble Bars with a jammy fruit center and buttery topping—well, they hit the sweet spot. ”
