These peach bars are delicious with almond flavor.  Crunchy crumbles and soft peaches make a nice combination.

Today I am sharing my peach crumble bars which are as delicious as my strawberry crumble bars.  These bars are so easy to make as well;  I am using the same dough for the crust and crumbles. 

In today’s recipe, I use oatmeal in the dough.  If you want to try my strawberry bars with oatmeal, you can use this crust. 

Let’s see the ingredients of this delicious recipe;

The Ingredients for Peach Crumble Bars

  • All-purpose flour-I use almost the same amount of oatmeal
  • Oatmeal-I use rolled oats
  • Butter-Melted
  • Cinnamon-gives a delicious taste
  • Peaches-peeled
  • Almond extract-I toss peaches with almond extract.  Almond and peach combination is delicious  
  • Lemon-I toss peaches with lemon juice, it adds a fresh touch
  • Cornstarch-I use to thicken the filling
  • Sugar-I use white granulated sugar

Why You Should Make These Oatmeal Peach Bars

You should try these peach bars because they are

  • delicious (almond and peach filling with a cinnamon oatmeal crust and crumbles are so yummy)
  • easy to make-(you’ll need the same dough for the crust and the crumbles)
  • great to stop your sweet craving without being overly sweet.

How to Make Oatmeal Peach Bars

First, peel and chop the peaches.  You can peel peaches by the blanching method. In my how to blanch peaches post, I show how to peel and pit the peaches effectively. There’ll be no waste with this method. You can check my post if you like.

After you peel the peaches, start to chop the peaches (place the pitted sides facing the cutting board) into almost  0,5-1 inch (1,25-2,5 cm) pieces.

Then mix the peaches with lemon juice and then with the almond extract.

Next, toss the peaches with cornstarch and sugar. Set aside.

Mix the flour, rolled oats, sugar, cinnamon, salt( if using) well in a medium bowl.  Then add the melted butter and stir with a spoon or spatula.

Place ⅔ of the mixture into an oven-proof dish that is lined with parchment paper.  Use your hands or a spoon to spread the mixture evenly.

Next, cover the crust with the peach mixture but leave the excess liquid in the bowl.  You may want to use this liquid later if there is too much left. ( You can place that liquid into a small pan, and when the mixture thickens you can remove it from the heat and drizzle the sauce on top of the baked bars. ) 

Finally, sprinkle the remaining dough over the peaches. If you like you can make some big crumble pieces by squeezing crumble mixture in your hand before sprinkling.  Use your fingertips to press to the crumbles so they can stick to peaches.

Bake for almost 35 minutes until the top becomes golden brown and the crumbles are crunchy.

Let it cool at room temperature for almost 1 hour.   Then keep in the fridge for extra 1,5 hours until it is completely cool so you can have nicely cut bars.
