Miso Caramel Peach Shortbread Crumble Bars

This may sound like an unseemly combination… but trust me!

They are made with rice flour, which gives them their chewy texture, and this also means that they are gluten-free. You can dip them in whatever flavour glaze you like, but I chose a raspberry glaze for these.
