Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Rustic Peach Tart
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Gather your ingredients and equipment.
  2. Pit and slice the fresh peaches into ½ inch thick slices and Toss with sugar and salt. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Combine flour with cold butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water and mix until dough holds together.
  4. Roll out the chilled dough into a 12-14 inch round, about ¼ inch thick. Transfer to a cookie sheet lined with parchment.
  5. Layer sliced peaches on the crust with a 2-inch border. Arrange evenly.
  6. Fold the edges of the crust over the peaches, crimping as needed for a rustic look.
  7. Brush the crust edges with water and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
  8. Bake for 35-45 minutes until the crust is golden and peaches are bubbly.
  9. Cool slightly and serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Use ripe peaches for the best flavor. Chill the dough for a flaky crust and avoid overcrowding the filling for even baking.
