The peach tarte tatin is a dessert that is prepared with fresh pastry and fruit: discover the ingredients and all the steps of the recipe now!
Tarte tatin is an upside down dessert made with apples and typical of traditional French cuisine. Today we offer you a summer variant : the peach tarte tatin, a sort of upside-down tart that you can offer for breakfast or at the end of a meal with a scoop of ice cream.
The particularity of the tarte tatin lies entirely in the cooking technique: the sweet caramel and the fruit are distributed on the bottom of the pan and then covered with the pastry. The dessert should only be turned over once it has cooled down after cooking.
Preparing the peach tarte tatin
- First of all pour the flour on a work surface or in a bowl, make the classic shape of a fountain and pour the cold butter cut into cubes in the centre.
- Add the yolk and 70 grams of sugar, start kneading, add the milk and continue to obtain a compact dough.
- Wrap the dough in cling film, place in the fridge and let it rest for at least half an hour.
- Meanwhile, prepare the caramel by pouring the rest of the sugar into a saucepan, add a spoonful of water , put on the heat and cook until you have obtained the caramel.
- Line the bottom of a cake pan with a sheet of baking paper and spread the caramel just prepared on the bottom. Also arrange the peach wedges (or if you prefer the peaches cut in half).
- Take the pastry back, roll it out with a rolling pin and place it on top of the peaches. Remove the edges of excess dough, cover with aluminum foil and bake at 180°C for 20 minutes.
- After this time, remove the baking paper, put it back in the oven and continue cooking for another 15 minutes .

storage
This classic cake, but revisited thanks to the inclusion of peaches, is delicious when still warm. We recommend eating it as soon as it is made, however you can keep it in the refrigerator for about 1-2 days under a special bell for sweets and heat it for a few minutes in the oven before serving. We do not recommend freezing in the freezer.
