Step 1: Fire Up the Oven
Crank the oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C).
Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Spread Out the Pastry
Dust your work surface with flour and gently roll out the puff pastry.
Transfer the delicate sheet to the prepped baking sheet.
With a sharp knife, trace a gentle ½-inch border around the edges, being careful not to slice completely through.
Poke tiny holes in the center with a fork to keep the pastry from puffing up too dramatically.
Step 3: Dress the Fruit
Ingredients:Toss the fruit in a mixing bowl with sugar, cornstarch, and a sprinkle of cinnamon if you’re feeling adventurous.
Artfully arrange the colorful fruit within the pastry’s border.
Step 4: Create a Golden Glow
Sweep a beaten egg across the pastry edges to create a stunning, glossy finish that’ll make your tart look bakery-worthy.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Slide the tart into the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes.
Watch for a golden-brown crust and bubbling fruit that signals it’s ready to come out.
Step 6: Whip Up the Vanilla Drizzle
Ingredients:Whisk these ingredients in a small bowl until smooth.
If the glaze seems too thick, splash in a bit more milk to reach your desired consistency.
Step 7: Add the Final Touch
Once the tart has cooled slightly, shower it with the vanilla glaze.
Slice and serve this beauty warm or at room temperature – pure deliciousness awaits!
Tart-Baking Tips for Peach & Blueberry Perfection
Prick the center of the pastry carefully with a fork to prevent excessive puffing and ensure a crisp, even base for your tart.
Toss peaches and blueberries with sugar and cornstarch just before arranging to prevent excess moisture and maintain a perfectly set filling.
Brush pastry edges with beaten egg for a beautiful, shiny golden finish that adds both visual appeal and a delicate crisp texture.
Adjust vanilla glaze thickness by adding milk gradually – start with small amounts to achieve your desired drizzling consistency.
Prepare the tart in advance and reheat gently before serving to maintain the pastry’s crisp texture and fruit’s vibrant flavor.

Look for a golden-brown pastry edge and bubbling fruit. The crust should be crisp and the fruit should look slightly softened. The total baking time is around 20-25 minutes.
You can prepare the tart and bake it a few hours before serving. The vanilla glaze is best drizzled just before serving to keep the pastry crisp and prevent sogginess.

- Total Time: 35 minutes
- Yield: 8 1x
Description
Summer’s sweetest blueberry peach tart brings together ripe fruit and buttery pastry in a delightful harmony. Golden crust and luscious glaze promise a delectable dessert that whisks you to sun-drenched orchards with each blissful bite.
Ingredients
Fruits:
- 2 large peaches, thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Tart Base and Binding Ingredients:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) powdered sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon (7.5 milliliters) milk (or cream)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Craft a pristine workspace by preheating the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Gently unfurl the puff pastry on a flour-dusted surface, carefully transferring it to the prepared sheet. Delicately trace a ½-inch border without fully piercing the dough, then puncture the interior with a fork to minimize excessive rising.
- Combine peach slices and blueberries in a mixing vessel, incorporating sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Artfully distribute the fruit within the pastry’s demarcated border.
- Enhance the pastry’s exterior with a lustrous egg wash, coating the edges to achieve a radiant golden finish.
- Position the tart in the heated oven, allowing it to transform for 20–25 minutes until the pastry achieves a rich golden hue and the fruit begins to effervesce. Extract from the oven and permit a brief cooling period.
- Craft a silky vanilla glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until achieving a smooth consistency. Adjust liquid proportions to reach desired viscosity.
- Elegantly cascade the vanilla glaze across the tart’s surface. Slice and present while warm or at ambient temperature, inviting immediate indulgence.
Notes
- Choose ripe, sweet peaches and blueberries for maximum flavor depth and natural sweetness.
- Ensure puff pastry is cold and firm before rolling to achieve a crisp, flaky texture.
- Sprinkle a thin layer of ground almonds beneath the fruit to absorb excess moisture and prevent soggy pastry.
- Consider using gluten-free puff pastry or alternative pastry for those with dietary restrictions.
