Description

Delightful mini tarts featuring a flaky pastry shell filled with creamy cheese and topped with sweet peach slices.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup ice water
  • Cream cheese slices (1/2 inch thick)
  • 2 fresh peaches, sliced
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp honey

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, combine flour and salt. Grate the cold butter into the mix, blending until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ice water until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  4. Roll Out & Cut: Roll out the chilled pastry to 1/8-inch thickness and cut into circles for a mini tart tin. Press the pastry circles firmly into the tin.
  5. Fill with Cheese: Place a slice of cream cheese into each tart shell, and top generously with peach slices.
  6. Glaze for Flavor: In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, lemon juice, and honey. Brush this mixture over the tarts for added flavor.
  7. Bake: Place the tart tin in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Allow to cool for a few moments before removing from the tin and serving.

Notes

Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Perfect for summer gatherings.
