Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add butter, egg, and vanilla; mix until crumbly dough forms.

Press crust mixture into the dish and bake for 15 minutes.

While crust bakes, toss peaches with sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla.

In a separate bowl, mix oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter until crumbly.

Spread peach filling over baked crust. Sprinkle oat topping evenly.

Bake for 35–40 minutes, until golden and bubbly.

Cool completely in pan before slicing into bars.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture.

Chilling before slicing improves clean cuts.
