Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (115g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ¼ tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
  • 4 tbsp (60ml) ice-cold water
  • 1 lb (450g) fresh peaches, sliced
  • 2 tbsp (16g) almond flour
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp (8g) coarse turbinado sugar

Instructions:

  1. Combine all-purpose flour and fine sea salt in a mixing bowl.
  2. Cut in the cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized lumps remaining.
  3. Gradually drizzle in ice-cold water, stirring with a fork until the dough just holds together.
  4. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour to relax the gluten.
  5. In a medium bowl, toss sliced peaches with lemon juice, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon.
  6. Whisk together cornstarch and almond flour in a small ramekin, then sprinkle over the peaches and toss gently until evenly coated.
  7. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  8. Roll the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle on parchment paper.
  9. Pile the peach mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
  10. Fold the edges of the dough over the fruit, overlapping as you go to create a rustic border.
  11. Brush the crust with beaten egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  12. Bake for 30 minutes or until the crust is mahogany-colored.
