Peach Tart

Summer is the season where you find amazing produce such as peaches, apricots, plums, etc. It’s the best time of year to bake up a storm and make amazing tarts, such as this peach tart that will have you begging for more.

One of the best baking recipes I have is apple tart. For this peach tart recipe, I use the pie crust recipe from Jacques Pepin, which yields the best and flakiest crust ever. For the filling of the peaches, I referred to Joy of Baking.

One thing I love most about this rustic peach tart is that it’s not too sweet; you can really taste the natural sweetness of the peachess.

Sprinkle some sugar on top of the peaches before baking is the secret that makes the tart especially mouthwatering. Every bite is pure enjoyment.

For summer entertaining, make this tart and serve to your family and guests. This recipe is so easy even novice baker will ace it with flying colors!

Easy Peach Tart Recipe

Easy Peach Tart - the best and easiest tart ever, loaded with peaches. The pie crust is flaky, buttery and delicious. This recipe is so easy and fail-proof for novice baker.

Prep Time 45 minutes

Cook Time 1 hour

Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes

Servings 6

Ingredients

Pie Crust

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 sticks 6 ounces cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, plus 2 tablespoons melted butter
1/3 cup ice water
Powdered sugar optional

Peach Filling

1 1/2 lbs. fresh peaches
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons granulated white sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F.
Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the flour, salt and butter on low speed for 2 minutes, slowly add ice water until the dough becomes a ball.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead 2 or 3 times, just until it comes together. Pat the dough into a disk. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 16- to 17-inch round about 1/4 inch thick. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll the dough around the rolling pin and transfer onto the prepared baking sheet.
Peach Filling: wash and, if needed, rub the peaches to remove any fuzz. Cut the peaches in half, remove the pits, and cut into thick 1-inch slices. Place the peach slices in a large bowl and season with the salt. Then add 3 tablespoons sugar and gently toss to combine. Arrange the peach slices on the pastry, placing them as close together without overlapping the slices too much. Leave about a two inch wide outside border. Gently fold the edges of the pastry up and over the peaches, pleating as necessary. Make sure to seal any cracks in the pastry.
Bake the tart in the center of the oven for 1 hour, or until the peaches are tender and golden and the crust is cooked through. Let the tart cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar, optional.

Your recipe mixes the flour and butter for far too long. It’s better to use a food processor and then only 10-12 pulses are enough. Long mixing of the flour causes it to release too much gluten, making the pastry tougher.

That peach recipe looks absolutely scrumptious, presents well (lots of ooh ah factor) and easy. This is a fantastic recipe, a definite ‘keeper’! Niagara, Ontario (Canadian) peaches are exquisite when in season – and I can’t wait to make this!

HI Bee,
As I have never baked a pie crust before, is it possible for you to do a video on how to do the pie crust?

  Hi Pei Fen, I don’t usually make video but if I do I will make sure I have one for pie crust. It’s very easy to make though.
