Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 medium Peaches
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 sheet Puff pastry sheet
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Peel the peaches if desired, then cut them in half and remove the pits. Slice each peach half into 4 wedges.
In an oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron), melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar and stir until it dissolves and begins to form a caramel sauce, about 3-5 minutes.
Stir in the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, then arrange the peach slices in a circular pattern in the skillet. Let the peaches cook in the caramel for 5 minutes, basting occasionally.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to ensure it covers the skillet with a slight overhang.
Carefully lay the puff pastry over the peaches, tucking the edges down into the skillet. Be mindful of the caramel sauce as it is very hot.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the puff pastry for a golden finish.
Poke a few small holes in the puff pastry with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let the tatin cool in the skillet for 5 minutes. Then, carefully invert the tart onto a serving plate or platter. Be cautious as the caramel will still be hot.
Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
