Rustic Peach Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
• Stir together the peaches, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a large bowl until combined.
• On a well-floured surface, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the pie dough into a large circle, about 12 to 14 inches in diameter. Move the dough circle to the prepared baking sheet. Chill the rolled-out dough in the refrigerator until firm, about 15 minutes. Spoon the fruit mixture onto the center of the dough leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit, pleating the dough, then dot the fruit filling with the butter pieces. Lightly brush the dough with the beaten egg, and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Cover if the crust browns too quickly. Allow the pie to cool slightly. Serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream or alongside fresh whipped cream.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together the flour and the salt; cut or work the butter into the flour with your fingers or with a pastry blender until you have large pea-size chunks scattered throughout. Alternatively, pulse the dough in a food processor, or mix in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment on low speed.
• Add the ice water slowly while stirring with a fork, or in the food processor or mixer, until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the dough. Divide the dough into 2 disks, flatten and refrigerate each for at least 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Pastry:.
• In a medium bowl, combine flour and sugar.
• Thoroughly cut in cubed butter until mixture resembles pea-sized crumbles.
• In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks and ice water.
• Slowly add yolk mixture to flour mixture, working with hands to form a smooth ball. If the mixture doesn't form into a ball easily, drizzle more ice water a little at a time until desired texture.
• Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes or until able to be worked with more easily.
• Filling:.
• In a medium-large bowl, thoroughly combine all ingredients except powdered sugar. If the mixture is too juicy, add 1 teaspoons at a time of additional flour as desired. Don't use too much flour, as the filling will become too starchy and gummy.
• Tart:.
• Preheat oven to 375°F
• On a large baking sheet or pizza stone, sprinkle a pinch of flour and roll out pastry dough into a 16-inch circle.
• Spread filling evenly onto pastry, leaving 1 1/2-inch dry outside edge.
• Carefully pull up edge of pastry and fold up over outside edge of filling, gently crimping with fingers all around tart. Remember, it is meant to look rustic, so don't worry about perfection.
• Brush edges of pastry with melted butter.
• Bake at 375 F for 30-45 minutes or until pastry is lightly browned and filling is set.
• Allow to cool for 20-30 minutes.
• Sprinkle top of tart with powdered sugar.
• Slice into eighths and serve warm.
