French Peach Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray; lightly sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Bisquick mix.
• In medium bowl, stir 2 cups Bisquick mix and the granulated sugar. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until crumbly. Stir in egg until soft dough forms. On cookie sheet, roll dough into 12x10-inch rectangle; pinch edges to form 1/2-inch rim.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 2 minutes. With large spatula, remove crust to cooling rack; cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• In chilled medium deep bowl, beat whipping cream, sour cream, powdered sugar and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed 2 to 3 minutes or until stiff peaks form. Spread whipped cream evenly over crust. Arrange peach slices over whipped cream. Brush with jelly. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Melt the butter in a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the sugar and salt until it looks like wet sand. Reduce the heat to medium and add the peaches. Cook, shaking the skillet, until the syrup is dark brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim the corners from the puff pastry to make a round. Remove the skillet from the heat and top the peaches with the puff pastry, tucking in the edges; cut three 2-inch slits into the top.
• Bake until browned on top, about 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the skillet, then invert onto a rimmed serving plate.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, rub together the flour and butter until it looks like fine breadcrumbs, then mix in the sugar. Add 1 egg yolk and 1 tsp water, followed by the next yolk and 1 tsp water until the dough just comes together. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface until big enough to line a 23cm tart tin. If the dough rips, simply patch it up. Cut away the excess pastry. Line with greaseproof paper, fill with baking beans, then bake for 10 mins. Remove paper and beans. Prick quite a few holes in the base of your tart, then bake for another 10-15 mins until biscuity.
• While the pastry cooks, make the filling. Whisk the sugar and butter together until you get a pale paste. Beat in the eggs and finally add the almonds and flour. Spoon into pastry case, arrange the peach slices across the top in a pattern and bake for 30-40 mins until golden. When cool, brush your preserve or jam across the top. Serve with a little pot of crème fraîche on the side and eat it quick before anyone else gets their hands on it!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Cream butter, sugar and nutmeg until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in flour until blended (mixture will be dry).
