I love to make these Easy Peach Tartlets when I have lunch or dinner guests. Anyone who tastes them is always blown away by my patisserie skills! What I don’t tell them is that I use store bought pastry! Not that there’s any shame in that of course! A chef friend of mine always says “life is too short to make your pastry”!
I start making these tartlets by cutting the pastry into 6 equal sized squares. I sprinkle sliced peaches with sugar, flour, cinnamon and vanilla. Then I layer the peaches onto the pastry, brush with egg and sprinkle with almonds. I bake them for just under 20 minutes. Once they have cooled down, I drizzle a glaze over the top. They look so professional!
To make Easy Peach Tartlets, you will need the following ingredients:
Turn on the oven and preheat to 400 ˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the pastry and cut it into 6 equal sized squares. Place the pastry squares on the baking sheet. Leave approx 1-inch space between them.
Place the peaches in a large baking bowl. Sprinkle them with the sugar, flour, cinnamon and vanilla and gently mix the ingredients together until evenly coated.
Arrange 3-4 peach slices in the center of each of the pastry squares. Leave the pastry edges free and brush them generously with the beaten egg. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top.
Place the tartlets in the oven and bake for 17-19 minutes until the edges have puffed up and are golden. The pastry browns very quickly towards the end so make sure you watch them towards the end of the cooking time.
Take the tartlets from oven and allow them to cool on the pan for about 10 minutes.
While they are cooling, mix the powdered sugar, vanilla and milk together in a small bowl or jug. Add extra milk if necessary to reach a pourable consistency. Drizzle the glaze over your warm pastries.
Serve immediately!

These tartlets are ace! Made 'em for the in-laws, and they were chuffed! Who knew store-bought pastry could taste so posh? Cheers for the recipe!
