Peaches and Cream Tart
Peaches and Cream is a simple summer dessert.
Using all the peaches that didn’t make it into a jar for a simple late summer dessert.
INGREDIENTS
2 to 3 medium peaches or plums, halved, pitted and thinly sliced
1 large lime
4 Tbsp. sugar, divided
1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed ( or you can make your own)
3 oz. cream cheese, softened
3 Tbsp. sour cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
DIRECTIONS
Place peach slices in a shallow dish. Remove 1 tsp. zest and squeeze 1 Tbsp. juice from lime; set zest aside. Drizzle peaches with lime juice; sprinkle with 2 Tbsp. of the sugar. Chill, covered, until ready to use, up to 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 400° F. Unfold pastry onto parchment paper. Roll pastry into an 11x9 inch rectangle. Using a paring knife, score a 1/2 inch border around the edge. It helps the edge to puff up more than the center, creating a rim for the tart. Prick pastry with a fork. Slide pastry on the parchment paper onto a baking sheet. Brush pastry lightly with heavy cream, sprinkle with 1 Tbsp. sugar.
Bake 15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Pastry can be made a few hours ahead of time.
In medium bowl beat cream cheese, sour cream, and remaining 1 Tbsp. sugar with a mixer on medium until combined. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream; beat until thickened. Spread cream cheese mixture over the center of tart. Arrange fruit on top, drizzle with any left over juices in the dish. Sprinkle with lime zest.
Serve within 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
