Peach + Cardamom Shortbread Bars
- 3 cups AP flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
- 1 egg
- 1/2 pound unsalted butter
- 3 peaches
- Preheat 375u0b0F
- Butter a 9x13 inch pan, or spray it with a nonstick spray. In a medium bowl, stir together sugar, baking powder, flour, salt and spices with a whisk.
- Use a pastry blender, fork or your fingertips, incorporate softened butter and egg into the flour mixture. It will be crumbly. Pat 3/4 of the crumbs into the bottom of the prepared pan, pressing firmly. If the dough is too tacky to handle, chill for about 10 mins.
- Tile peach slices over crumb base in a single layer, it's ok if some overlap
- Scatter remaining crumbs evenly over peaches and bake for 30 minutes, rotating halfway through, until top is slightly brown and you can see a little color around the edges.
- Cool completely in pan before cutting into squares.
