Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 3 large ripe peaches, sliced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and add the sliced peaches and sugar. Cook until the peaches are caramelized, about 5-7 minutes, then set aside to cool.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, and salt. Add cubed cold butter and mix until crumbly.
4. Stir in the beaten egg and almond extract until the dough comes together. Press the dough into a tart pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly.
5. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let it cool slightly.
6. Spread the caramelized peaches evenly over the baked tart crust.
7. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract and powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Spread the vanilla whip on top of the peaches or serve on the side.
8. Slice and serve the tart warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Tip: Ensure your peaches are ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor. Adjust the sugar according to the sweetness of the peaches.

For the best flavor, choose ripe peaches that yield slightly to pressure. If using frozen peaches, make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture.

Variations can include adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the almond crust for a warm spice flavor. You can also substitute the vanilla whip with whipped coconut cream for a dairy-free option.

This tart can be made a day in advance. Store it in the refrigerator and add the vanilla whip just before serving for the best texture.
