- 1 egg, beaten (for brushing the crust)

How to Make an Amazing Peach Cobbler Tart
Follow these simple steps to create a dessert that’s as delicious as it is beautiful:
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the peaches: In a large bowl, toss the peach slices with sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and flour until coated.
- Roll out the dough: Place your pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the peach mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
- Fold the edges: Gently fold the edges of the dough over the peaches, creating pleats as you go. Dot the peaches with butter cubes.
- Brush and sprinkle: Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar for a golden, sparkly finish.
- Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling.
- Cool and serve: Let the tart cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
Pro Tips for Peach Cobbler Tart Success
- Pick the right peaches: Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture and flavor.
- Prevent soggy crust: Sprinkle a thin layer of almond flour or breadcrumbs on the crust before adding the peaches to absorb extra juice.
- Make it ahead: Prepare the tart earlier in the day and reheat in the oven for 10 minutes before serving.
Serving and Storage Suggestions
This tart is best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven. Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate dessert experience. 🌟
If you have leftovers (unlikely!), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes to restore that crisp crust.
Pinterest-Worthy Styling Tips
- Use a rustic background: A wooden cutting board or a linen cloth gives the perfect farmhouse vibe.
- Highlight the peaches: Arrange extra peach slices on top before baking for an irresistible look.
- Garnish: A sprinkle of powdered sugar or a sprig of fresh mint takes your tart to the next level.
- Lighting is key: Shoot your photos in natural light to capture the golden tones of the tart.
