Ingredients:

Crumble

  • 6 Weet-Bix wheat biscuits, finely crushed
  • 1 ½ cups wholemeal flour
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 170g margarine, melted

Peach Filling

  • 1 tbs cornflour
  • 4 large peaches, stoned and diced
  • 2 tsp lemon juice

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 180˚C. Oil a 20cm square baking pan and line with baking paper.
  2. Mix together the Weet-Bix, flour, brown sugar and baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of the slice tin to form a thin, even bottom layer. Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly golden and remove from the oven.
  3. While the base is cooking, place the diced peaches in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the cornflour and toss to coat. Add the lemon juice and mix well.
  4. Spoon the peach filling over the cooked base,
  5. Sprinkle with the remaining crumble mixture and firmly press down the top layer. Return to the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crumble is golden brown.
  6. Leave to cool before cutting into bars. Store in an airtight container for 4-5 days.

Tips:

If peaches are not in season, you can use a tin of peaches in juice. Drain well before using.
