Cuisine American
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¾ cup All-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 5 each small peaches, pitted and quartered
- 3 TB granulated sugar
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp cornstarch
- ½ tsp vanilla
For the dough, whisk together the dry ingredients.
Place the butter in a food processor. Dump the dry ingredients on the butter and pulse until it all forms a dough. If it’s too dry, add a tablespoon or two, and pulse again.
Form a ball, wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for an hour.
Preheat oven to 375℉.
Transfer the dough to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Filling
For the filling, whisk together the dry ingredients. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface.
Toss the peaches with the vanilla and then sprinkle the sugar mixture on the peaches and stir to coat the peaches. Set aside.
Turn the dough between each roll to keep it from sticking to the surface and to make it round.
Assembly
Pile the peaches in the middle of the dough and fold up the edges—don’t worry if it’s messy—the sloppier it is, the more rustic you can pretend it is ;) . Brush the dough with heavy cream. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on the moistened dough.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles. Let cool on a wire rack. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
