Peaches and Cream Buckle Bars (Courtesy of Slice of Feist Blog)
Ingredients
Batter
1 Cup room temp. Unsalted Butter (I used salted butter and it was fine, just leave out the pinch of salt!)
2 Cups Sugar1 1/2 tsps Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Almond Extract
4 eggs
3 Cups Flour
A Pinch of Salt
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
Peach Mixture
3 Cups Sliced and roughly chopped Ripe Peaches
1/4 Cup Packed Brown Sugar
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Ginger
Splash of Vanilla
Creamy Dreamy Glaze
1 1/2 Cups Powdered Sugar
3 tbsps Cream (I used much more than this!)
1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
We're ready to get peachy! |
Beat your butter and sugar until smooth and fluffy. Mix in one egg at a time, scraping down the sides of your mixing bowl in between. Add your extracts. Slowly mix in your flour, salt and cinnamon.
Butter and Sugar. You think that would be enough to make a recipe! |
With the four eggs whipped in, the batter is coming together! |
In a separate bowl combine your peaches, brown sugar, spices and vanilla.
How great are these peaches?! I know how to make them better... |
...throw in some brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and a splash of vanilla! |
Pour 3/4 of your batter into the baking dish. Next, evenly distribute the peach mixture on top.
The batter is sad and needs some friends... |
...sooo much happier! One more thing... |
...NOW we're talking! |
Drop the rest of the batter on top, in little plops here and there…similar to a cobbler (it should look like the masterpiece above, hehe)
Yes, this looks divine. But I know adding icing is always a good idea! |
Once the buckle is cooked, let it cool down mostly before proceeding with the glaze.
For the Glaze, mix the 3 ingredients together..if you feel that it should be runnier, add some more cream. Now take a spoon and generously pour the glaze in long strokes. Try to not put the spoon directly into your mouth. Focus on the buckle!
You're probably wondering...does it taste as good as it looks? The answer is YES! |
Yep. This is happening. |
