Cook time: 30 minutes
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 0 parchment paper to line the baking sheet
- 2 cups sliced peaches
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder or cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup peach jam
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 sheets puff pastry thawed
- 1 whole egg beaten
- 1 sheet puff pastry additional for border
- 0 peach mixture prepared mixture
- 0 egg for brushing edges
- 2 tablespoons candied ginger chunks
- 0.5 cup coarse sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the peaches, arrowroot, ground ginger, and vanilla. Toss, then add the jam and honey. Gently toss again.
- Roll the pastry out a little to stretch it and then transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Take the second sheet of pastry and cut 4 strips, each 1/2 inch wide. Stick the strips around the edges of the larger sheet of pastry, pressing to adhere.
- Working inside the borders, arrange the peaches on top, gently wiggling them just slightly under the edge of the pastry. Use a fork to crimp the edges of the pastry shut to prevent any leaking, then brush the edges with the egg.
- In a food processor, pulse the ginger chunks into small pieces, add the coarse sugar, and pulse a few times to combine. Sprinkle the pastry edges with ginger sugar.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown. It's OK if the edges get dark. Let cool slightly and serve with ice cream.
