Ingredients
- 4 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish or ovenproof skillet.
- Peel and slice the peaches. Toss them with sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract if using.
- Melt butter in the prepared baking dish over medium heat. Add the peach slices and cook 3–5 minutes until slightly caramelized.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet and place it over the peaches, tucking the edges around the fruit.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the puff pastry is golden and fully cooked.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes, then carefully invert onto a serving plate so the peaches are on top.
Notes
- Peeling peaches is optional but creates a smoother texture.
- Caramelize peaches lightly to prevent soggy pastry.
- Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
- Optional toppings: sliced almonds, honey drizzle, or vanilla ice cream.
