Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry sheet
- 3 whole ripe peaches
- 100 grams Asiago cheese
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 whole egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the frozen puff pastry sheet to smooth out any creases. Place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Using a knife, score a 1-inch border around the edges of the puff pastry, taking care not to cut all the way through. This will create a raised crust when baked.
Wash and slice the peaches into thin wedges. Grate the Asiago cheese and set both aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash to promote a golden, flaky crust.
Arrange the peach slices in a single layer within the scored border of the puff pastry. Sprinkle the grated Asiago cheese evenly over the peaches.
Drizzle the honey and balsamic glaze over the top of the peaches and cheese. Add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper for flavor.
Sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the tart for a herby note.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the cheese has melted.
Remove the tart from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Drizzle with more balsamic glaze, if desired, before slicing into portions.
Serve warm or at room temperature as an appetizer, light lunch, or dessert.
