Bourbon Peach Pie Bars

Ingredients

1

 Refrigerated Pie Crust

3

fresh peaches

1/2

cup brown sugar

1

teaspoon corn starch

1

teaspoon vanilla

1

bottle bourbon

1/2

teaspoon cinnamon

1

egg yolk

1/2

cup powdered sugar

1

tablespoon lemon juice

Steps

• 1

  Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• 2

  Peel 3 peaches and cut into slices. Soak them in a jar (or two) with bourbon. You only need to soak them for about 20 minutes as they take on the strong bourbon taste quickly.
• 3

  While they’re soaking, press one pie dough into an 8 x 8 pan.
• 4

  Strain the peaches. In a bowl, add brown sugar, corn starch, cinnamon and vanilla in a bowl and stir until combined.
• 5

  Arrange the sugary peaches in the pan, then scoop some of the remaining juice onto the peaches.
• 6

  With the other pie crust, lay it out on a cutting board. Cut strips to make a lattice pattern on the top of the peaches, just like an old fashioned pie.
• 7

  Brush the top of the crust with an egg yolk mixed with a teaspoon of water.
• 8

  Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• 9

  In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and lemon juice and stir until it’s the texture of a glaze.
• 10

  Once the bars are cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top.
