Peach Pie Bars

This Peach Pie Bars recipe came about after I was looking at the jars of homemade peach pie filling I made last month. I had left a jar of the peach pie filling sitting on my counter so I didn't forget that I wanted to make a batch of these Peach Pie Bars.

I remembered how good the Peach Almond Jam Bars recipe I made for the Vintage recipe project turned out. I decided to see if I would like this old-fashioned jam bar recipe made with peach pie filling as much as I did when I made it with peach jam.

I think I have found the best fruit bars base recipe ever. This bar recipe has three lovely layers. The bottom layer is a crunchy crust layer made with almond meal. The second layer is the fruit filling. The third layer is a very tender and moist cake layer.

It is one of the best tasting cakes I have baked in a long time.

I am going to have to play around with this recipe and see what else I can come up with. I think before I go all mad scientist on it I am going to make a batch of Cherry Marmalade Bars.

I have a feeling that delicious Cherry Marmalade recipe I made over the summer is going to be perfect sandwiched in between this almond-based crust and the tender cake layer of this recipe.
