These indulgent peach bars are wonderful on their own but would also be excellent with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. By: Jaclyn from Cooking Classy.

How To Make peach cobbler crumb bars

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small mixing bowl whisk together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch,cinnamon,nutmeg and ginger. In a large mixing bowl,toss peaches with orange juice and optional orange zest. Sprinkle sugar mixture over peach mixture and toss to evenly coat,set aside.

Step 2

In a separate large mixing bowl,whisk together flour,baking powder and salt. Cut butter into flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl,whisk together egg,sour cream and vanilla extract. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir until well combine.
Step 3

Add in remaining 1 cup granulated sugar and stir until combine. Spread and press half of crumb mixture into an even layer in a greased 13x9 inch baking dish. Toss peach mixture once more and pour over bottom crumb layer and spread peaches into an even layer (spread juices evenly too).
Step 4

Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over top of peaches into an even layer. Sprinkle top evenly with optional Turbinado sugar. Bake in preheated oven 45-50 minutes until golden. Serve warm with optional vanilla ice cream or allow to cool and cut into bars. Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
