Peaches and Cream Crescent Bars

They make a great dessert or breakfast treat.

In addition to canned peach pie filling, I also like to add a few sliced fresh peaches for tons of peach flavor.

Having grown up in the South, there were never a shortage of peaches during the summer months. For years I lived right next to a peach farm in South Carolina. I have made so many peach recipes over the years and this one is right near the top of my list!

There’s 4 Easy Layers In These Bars

1. Crescent roll dough forms a buttery, soft crust.
2. Cream Cheese Layer– lightly sweetened with sugar and flavored with a little almond extract.
3. Peach Layer– a combination of peach pie filling and fresh peaches.
4. Streusel topping with sliced almonds and cinnamon.

Once put together these bars need just about 25 minutes in the oven. They can be eaten warm, cold, or room temperature.

Another great recipe using peaches and crescent roll dough is this  Peach Crescent Dumplings Recipe.

I find that 1 can of peach pie filling doesn’t really add enough peaches so I like to add 2 fresh peaches. Instead of fresh peaches, you can use either canned peaches that have been drained well or frozen peaches that have been thawed.

One teaspoon of vanilla extract can be used instead of almond extract, but I really love the flavor of almond extract with peaches.

Pecans or walnuts can be used instead of almonds.

You can easily use a can of blueberry pie filling plus fresh blueberries, cherry pie filling plus fresh cherries, or strawberry pie filling plus fresh strawberries instead of peaches.

How To Serve

These bars can be served chilled, at room temperature, or warm. I most like them warm or at room temperature. They are even better topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
