Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Vegan puff pastry sheets
- 4 medium Fresh peaches
- 60 grams Almond meal
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 30 grams Vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon Almond extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 15 grams Powdered sugar
- 20 grams Slivered almonds
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the vegan puff pastry sheets as per the package instructions until pliable but still cold.
Slice the fresh peaches into thin wedges, removing the pits.
In a small bowl, mix the almond meal with the granulated sugar.
Add the vegan butter and almond extract to the almond meal mixture and mix until combined. This will create an almond paste.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets slightly to eliminate any creases and cut each into 4 equal squares, yielding 8 pieces in total.
Place the pastry squares on the prepared baking sheet.
Divide the almond paste mixture evenly among the puff pastry squares, spreading a thin layer in the center of each, leaving about a 1cm border around the edges.
Arrange peach slices on top of the almond paste in a neat pattern.
Brush the edges of the pastry with a little lemon juice to help achieve a golden brown finish.
Sprinkle the slivered almonds over the peaches.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
