Ingredients
  

Crust:

  • 1 ¼ cup (160g) flour
  • 1 stick (110g) cold unsalted butter , cut into small (1/2-inch) cubes
  • 1 ½ tsp (7g) sugar
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) salt
  • 4 to 6 tbsp (60-90ml) ice water

Filling

  • 2 or 3 yellow peaches
  • 1/4 cup (50g) sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30g) butter , melted
  • 1 ½ tsp (6g) cornstarch
  • sugar , for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust.

  • Sift the flour and mix flour with salt and sugar. Incorporate butter into the flour, using a pastry blender, a fork or a pastry processor, until crumbs are formed. Slowly add the water and stir until the water is incorporated.
  • Wrap it with plastic, knead slowly to form a disc and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Slice the peaches and place them in a bowl. Mix sugar with cornstarch and add over the peach slices. Add butter and toss gently to coat.  
  • Using the wrap plastic at the base, roll the dough to about a 13-inch diameter. Lift the rolled dough and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. 
  • Arrange the peach slices in overlapping circles starting one and a half inches from the edge. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake for about 40 45 minutes, remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes. Cut and serve with vanilla ice cream.
