Step-by-Step Instructions for Peach Pie Crumble Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8"x8" pan with parchment paper.
  2. Combine all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix in melted butter until a soft dough forms, then press into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
  3. Chop peaches and combine with sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a separate bowl.
  4. Mix together flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon in another bowl. Add in melted butter and mix until crumbly.
  5. Spread peach mixture over baked crust, then crumble oat topping over the peaches.
