Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel and slice the ripe peaches into thin wedges.
In another bowl, combine the peach slices with cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a piece of parchment paper.
Roll the dough out into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to a 9-inch tart pan, pressing the dough into the corners and trimming the excess.
Arrange the peach mixture neatly over the crust in concentric circles or a pattern of your choice.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and milk to create an egg wash.
Brush the edges of the crust with the egg wash.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are tender.
Allow the tart to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Gluten-Free Classic Peach Tart warm or at room temperature.
