Ingredients
Scale
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.
