Equipment

  • Large baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 1 whole sheet puff pastry, store bought
  • 4 to 5 whole fresh ripe peaches peeled, seeded, sliced
  • 1/3 cup + 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar divided use 1/3 cup for peach filling; the rest to sprinkle on puff pastry
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup softened unsalted butter
  • vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

  • Thaw the puff pastry and lay it out flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Peel and slice the peaches. Discard the pits. Place the slices in a medium sized bowl. Add the sugar, cornstarch, salt and lemon juice.
  • To the center of the puff pastry, pour the sliced peaches. Include whatever liquids have formed with the sliced peaches. Dot the butter on top of the peach slices.
  • Using both hands, gather the puff pastry. Shape and flute the sides all around the peach slices. Leave the center part with the fruit open and uncovered. The pastry sides should look like it was a flower about to bloom.
    (Note: work on this with the puff pastry already on the baking sheet so you don't have to move it).
  • Sprinkle granulated sugar around the puff pastry.
  • Bake at a preheated oven of 400 F for 25 to 28 minutes till pastry is golden brown on sides and peach mixture is bubbly.
  • Serve warm or cold. Best if served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • Cook’s Comments: If puff pastry is not available, substitute with a single-layer pie crust (homemade or store-bought). Follow directions for fruit and bake at the same amount of time.
