Description
A rustic yet elegant dessert that showcases juicy peaches encased in flaky pastry, perfect for summer gatherings or quiet evenings at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 sheet puff pastry or pie crust
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for a beautifully baked treat.
- Mix the peach filling in a bowl, combining sliced peaches, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Let this sweet mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
- Prepare the puff pastry by rolling it out on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Assemble the galette by piling the peach mixture in the center of the pastry, leaving about 2 inches of the edge for folding.
- Fold the edges of the pastry over the peaches, pleating as needed for a rustic look.
- Egg wash the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden brown color, and dot the peaches with small pieces of butter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
- Cool slightly before serving, and enjoy fresh.
