Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar, divided

  • ½ cup butter

  • 3 nectarines, sliced, divided

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 eggs

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine flour and 1/2 cup sugar in a 9x13-inch baking pan; cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Press firmly into an even layer.

  3. Bake in preheated oven until crust is slightly browned, about 25 minutes.

  4. Place 1/3 of the nectarine slices in a blender and puree until smooth. Stir cornstarch into the mixture until evenly distributed.

  5. Beat eggs in a large bowl until light, using an electric mixer; gradually beat in 1 cup sugar until well combined. Stir in the blended nectarine mixture; pour over hot baked crust.

  6. Bake until almost set, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on a rack, 30 minutes to 1 hour; cut into bars. Top bars with remaining nectarine slices.

Cook's Notes:

You can add 3 tablespoons lemon juice to the blender mixture. It adds a little zest to this great treat.

You can substitute margarine for the butter.
