Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Thaw the ready-made puff pastry sheet as per the package instructions.
Wash and thinly slice the peaches, discarding the pits.
In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract to create a smooth almond cream.
Unroll the puff pastry onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread the almond cream evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
Arrange the peach slices over the almond cream, slightly overlapping them.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the peaches.
Scatter the almond slices on top of the peaches for added crunch.
Beat the egg in a bowl and brush the edges of the pastry with the egg wash to promote golden browning.
Bake the pastry in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the pastry is cooked through.
Allow the pastry to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
