Take a crunchy oatmeal crust along with a peach-hazelnut flavored center and you have wonderful Peach Hazelnut Bars that you’ll absolutely love! They are light and very flavorful along with quick and easy to prepare. It takes only 20 min. of prep to make these bars. Now, if you happen to have any leftover, they freeze well, too!

1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 tsp cinnamon

18 oz. jar of peach preserves (or approx. 2 cups)
3-4 tablespoons hazelnut syrup (coffee flavoring)
Chopped hazelnuts or pecans (optional)
Glaze:
1 1/2 c. confectioner’s sugar
3-5 tablespoons hazelnut coffee creamer
Chopped pecans

Pat 2/3 of crumbs in a 9×13 cake pan
Spread Peach Preserves mixed with hazelnut flavoring over the crust
Sprinkle with remaining crumbs
Bake in oven at 375 degrees for 30-35 min
Cool slightly and mix glaze together
