  • 2 large fresh peaches sliced (or 1 (15 oz) can sliced peaches, drained)
  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract for peach filling
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds
For the Glaze
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract for glaze
  • 1 Tbsp milk plus more if needed

Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Pastry Brush
  • Small bowl
  • Medium Mixing Bowl
  • Small Measuring Cup

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Gently thaw puff pastry according to package directions.
  3. Unfold puff pastry and cut into 9 equal squares. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Beat one egg for the egg wash.
  5. Slice peaches into about 1/3-inch thick slices and place in a medium bowl.
  6. To the peaches, add granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp vanilla extract. Toss to coat.
  7. Layer 3-4 peach slices in the center of each puff pastry square, avoiding the edges.
  8. Lightly brush the edges of each pastry square with the beaten egg.
  9. Sprinkle sliced almonds evenly over the top of each tartlet.
  10. Bake for 17-19 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown. Rotate baking sheet halfway through for even baking.
  11. Let tartlets cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.
  12. While cooling, prepare the glaze: stir together powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1 Tbsp milk in a small measuring cup. Add more milk if needed for drizzling consistency.
  13. Drizzle the glaze over the warm peach tartlets.
