Puff Pastry Peach Tart

Dessert

Prep Time: 15-20 Minutes

Cook Time: 10-15 Minutes

Serves: 2

Ingredients

  • Puff pastry dough
  • 3 whole peaches (2 cut into medium/small chunks to saute + 1 sliced thin into half moons)
  • ¼ cup of water
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • Powdered sugar (and optional torn fresh mint) for garnish

Directions

  • Saute cut peach pieces with water, butter, honey, sugar and cinnamon on low heat to create a syrupy peach base.
  • Lightly grease oven safe pan and place a rectangle (approximately 4” x 8”) of puff pastry on pan. (Chef Burke added some pesto under the pastry for a savory hint)
  • Not going to edges, place a base layer of the sautéed peach mixture on top of the pastry.
  • Layer thinly sliced peach half moons on top, overlapping and with skin at top.
  • Gently form pastry “crust” by creating an edge to contain the fruit.
  • Place into the pizza oven and cook low and slow, rotating occasionally, until the dough is to your satisfaction. (approximately 12 minutes)
  • Sprinkle with sugar and garnish with mint, if desired.
