How to Make Peach Crostata

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a deep 9-10 inch pie plate.
  5. Trim and neaten the edges of the crust.
  6. Arrange 4-5 ripe peaches, sliced, over the crust. Sprinkle with ¾ cup granulated sugar.
  7. Dust with ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional).
  8. Bake for 15 minutes.
  9. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup heavy cream and 2 large eggs until well blended.
  10. After 15 minutes, carefully remove the crostata from the oven and pour the egg and cream mixture evenly over the peaches.
  11. Return to the oven and bake for another 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  13. Best served fresh, but can be kept at room temperature for up to 24 hours. Do not refrigerate.
