Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 3 tablespoons ice water
- 4 cups fresh peaches (sliced)
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoons cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 egg (for egg wash, beaten)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
Add the cubed, cold butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overwork the dough.
Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
While the dough chills, prepare the peach filling: In a medium bowl, toss the sliced peaches with brown sugar, honey, cornstarch, and cinnamon until evenly coated.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to the prepared baking sheet.
Arrange the peach mixture in the center of the dough, leaving a 1.5-inch border around the edges.
Fold the edges of the dough up over the peaches, pleating as you go to create a rustic crust.
Brush the crust with the beaten egg for a glossy finish.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peach filling is bubbling.
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
