Ingredients (serves 8-10):

For the crust and crumble topping:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1 egg yolk

For the filling:

- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure to use cold butter when making the crust and crumble topping. This will help create a flaky texture.
- Use fresh blackberries and peaches for the best flavor. Frozen fruit can be used in a pinch, but the texture may be slightly different.
- Be sure to let the bars cool completely before cutting into them. This will help them hold their shape.

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add the egg yolk and mix until the dough comes together. Press two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
4. In another bowl, mix together the blackberries, peaches, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Pour the mixture over the crust.
5. Crumble the remaining dough over the top of the fruit mixture.
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
7. Let the bars cool completely before cutting into them.
